BBC Children in Need is the BBC's UK charity.
Since 1980 it has raised over £600 million to change the lives of
disabled children and young people in the UK. One of the highlights is an
annual telethon, held in November and shown on BBC One and BBC One HD from
7:30pm until 2am. Pudsey Bear is the Children
in Need's mascot. The 2012
appeal took place on Friday the 16th of November.
Children
In Need has been a huge success this year with millions of pounds raised. The
amazing and inspiring show was presented by Tess Daly (Strictly Come Dancing
presenter), Radio DJ Sir Terry Wogan and Fearne Cotton (top telly host). Also top
pop groups One Direction, Girls Aloud and Little Mix were on hand to perform
for the public.
Throughout
the show some special faces were also spotted on the stage... Olympic and
Paralympic stars and Doctor Who himself, and loads more people too!
The
Children In Need boss David Ramsden described the entire experience as “phenomenal”.
David said: “It is amazing that people across the UK have once again come together
to raise much a massive sum.” “Thank you so much for helping to change
thousands of young lives across the UK”.
Also
to top this all off, stars from the Olympic and Paralympic team produced a
video to celebrate Children In Need. Watch the video below to see what they
made...
