Support for Children Living in Severe Poverty (UK)

Grants are now available to support children and young people in the UK experiencing a crisis or emergency.

The grants which are made available through the BBC Children in Need Emergency Essentials programme support families with children up to the age of 17 who are living with financial, health and social difficulties by providing items that meet children's most basic needs, such as kitchen appliances, furniture, baby equipment, beds, clothing, and other items and services that are critical to children's wellbeing.

Applications must come through a registered referral agency supporting the family or young person.

The programme is delivered by Family Fund Business Services, and applications can be made at any time.
