BBC Children in Need are transitioning to a new grantmaking system.

BBC Children in Need are transitioning to a new grantmaking system. This transition will take place throughout 2025 and we will launch our new system by the end of September. During this period there will be some disruption to our grant programmes.

As a result BBC Children in Need will be unable to accept new Expressions of Interest applications after 15th April 2025 until we launch our new grantmaking system, by the end of September 2025.

Your current online account (also known as the grantee portal) will close on 25th July 2025. We will launch our new grantee portal by the end of September 2025.

We want to minimise the disruption this transition will have on all our applicants and grantees. If you are a current applicant or grantee then we will be contacting you directly with information about how this affects you.
