BBC Children in Need and HSBC UK have joined forces with charity Young Enterprise to adapt its Money Heroes programme for young people experiencing a range of challenges, including disabled children and young people, care-experienced children and young people, young carers and those affected by poverty.

Children in Need has identified 100 voluntary organisations across the UK to take part in delivering the adapted programme, such as after school and sports clubs, organisations working with care leavers and youth clubs.

Each organisation will receive two hours of training delivered by a financial education expert from Young Enterprise, followed by up to eight hours of mentoring to continue to support them in delivering the programme to the children they support.
