Gary Barlow, JLS and Union J are among the famous faces calling on the British public to once again get fundraising to help raise millions for disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.
Pudsey’s celebrity pals are getting involved with a number of different activities to get us raising cash this year..
JLS are asking fans to follow in their footsteps, pop on their dancing shoes and put on a musical fundraising show of their own in aid of the bear, while X Factor boybanders Union J are teaming up with One Show host Alex Jones by asking people to ditch their 9 to 5 clothes and go to work in their Pyjamas.
Radio DJ Nick Grimshaw and BBC Children in Need’s Life President Sir Terry Wogan and are encouraging Brits to channel their inner Mary Berry’s to get creative in the kitchen and hold a bake sale.
Or for the fitness fanatics out there, Blue Peter host Matt Baker is calling on the public to put on their running gear and take part in a sponsored race to change young lives.
Gary Barlow: 'Every penny goes towards making a difference to the lives of children and young people based here in the UK'
X Factor Gary Barlow says of this year’s campaign: ‘I’m doing my bit for BBC Children in Need, are you?
‘Whether you bake, race, dress-up or sing, every penny goes towards making a difference to the lives of children and young people based here in the UK.’
To date the Great British public has raised nearly £690 million for children across the UK and the Charity is calling on people to once again pull out the stops and start baking, running, dancing, pyjama wearing or singing; anything at all to help raise money to change young lives!
