Children in Need is back for another year with the charity's annual appeal show returning to the BBC once again for its 46th telethon.

Every year the charity fundraiser looks to raise money in a bid to help children and young people across the UK who are facing a range of complex challenges caused by mental health, poverty, social inequality and family-related issues.

Once again, BBC Children in Need will look to raise money for young people impacted by difficult circumstances through various fundraising activities including celebrity challenges and the charity's annual appeal show.

In a bid to raise money for the cause, BBC Radio Two Teatime show host Sara Cox will be running five marathons in five days as part of the annual Children in Need fundraising challenge.
