British Airways is supporting Comic Relief and BBC Children in Needs The Big Night In Appeal to help communities across the UK who have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The coronavirus crisis has affected us all like we could never have imagined. Whilst we are all in this together, sadly, it is the most vulnerable in our communities who will be hit hardest by this crisis. For people reliant on services that keep them safe from harm, mentally healthy and with access to food, warmth and shelter; the physical and social isolation that is necessary to help prevent the spread of coronavirus puts them even more at risk.

The money raised through The Big Night In Appeal will be split between Comic Relief and Children in Need and will go on to support a variety of charities and projects in the UK so they can continue to provide frontline, essential support to people who need it through this crisis. This includes vulnerable children and young people, people who are homeless or living in poverty, women and families at risk of domestic abuse, and those struggling with mental health problems, across the UK.

You can get involved by setting up a fundraising page using the orange Start Fundraising button, or donating to this appeal.
