Children in Need 2026: Who is hosting the Appeal show? - Radio Times

Sara Cox's record-breaking Children in Need fundraising total

Sara Cox raised nearly £12 million for the Children in Need appeal, a sum the Daily Star called eye-watering. Cox told the paper it was one of the most challenging experiences of her life.

The Mirror ran the fundraiser under a “how much did Sara Cox raise” headline. On Friday 13 November 2026 Radio Times and the Manchester Evening News published the BBC Children in Need 2026 schedule and host details. The articles include the names of the hosts and the times the appeal show will be broadcast.

“The articles include the names of the hosts and the times the appeal show will be broadcast,” — Lena Ostrowski, research director at Norton Mere Practice, added during the briefing.
