Who Have We Helped?

The Scottish Welfare Awards Network comprises a network of local fund holders who through financial assistance and support from BBC Children in Need Scotland distribute small grants to disadvantaged children and young people living in Scotland.

We aim through these grants to alleviate the poverty and distress experienced by these children and young people.

• 5410 children throughout Scotland received help through BBC Children in Need awards made by the twenty-two local distributors in the Scottish Welfare Awards Network.

• The average grant was £58.36.

• Most awards were made for clothes and footwear (47%) with bedding (12%) second and Christmas gifts (10%) third. Awards were also made for holidays, toys, baby equipment, safety equipment, and sports.
