BBC Children in Need Emergency Essentials Programme

Our Emergency Essentials programme supports individual children and young people living with severe poverty. The programme provides items that meet children’s most basic needs such as a bed to sleep in, a cooker to give them a hot meal, clothing (in a crisis) and other items and services that are critical to children’s wellbeing. The programme is now being delivered by Family Fund Business services on our behalf.
