An evening of glitz, glamour, and heartfelt stories awaits, as moving films show just how life-changing the donations to children and young adults can be. While full details of the celebrity-packed lineup will be announced nearer the event, anticipation is certainly building for what promises to be an unforgettable night, as reported by the Mirror.

BBC Executive Producer Peter Davey shared his excitement about the fast-approaching fundraiser, saying: "The team is working tirelessly to create something special, and I can promise a fantastic night of family entertainment, fronted by our amazing presenters and filled with treats and surprises for all ages. BBC Children in Need is one of those special shows where everyone can come together to laugh, cry, and hopefully donate what they can to help those in need."

Donations collected on the night will bolster the vital efforts of BBC Children in Need across the UK's communities, financing critical services like family centres, community spaces, youth organisations, refuges, support for the homeless, hospices, and helplines. With a heartfelt plea, BBC Children in Need is calling on people throughout the nation to join in and help illuminate the lives of young individuals this year.

Children In Need will be aired live on BBC One and iPlayer from MediaCityUK, Salford, at 7pm on Friday, November 15.

OPINION - Laugh at Iqbal Mohamed all you want, but a law is the wrong way to tackle first cousin marriage
Iqbal Mohamed, one of the Independent Alliance of five MPs, went viral after his earnest defence of first cousin marriages as Parliament debated a proposal to ban them. Among other things, Mohamed said, these unions “help build up family bonds”. Since consanguineous marriage is a tradition among particular communities originating from the Middle East and South Asia, it would therefore be harmful, even racist, the subtext goes, to disparage or restrict its free practice.
