The Big Build for Children in Need
In this Children in Need special, the DIY SOS team joins forces with Radio 2 for a mega build in Leeds. Nick Knowles and his team set to work to transform a derelict site into a brand-new base for the young women's charity Getaway Girls. This is one of the show's biggest projects ever, and it's a massive challenge to complete in just ten days.
Radio 2 are on a mission to recruit the hundreds of volunteers needed from their millions of listeners, while a brigade of the station's presenters dons hard hats and high viz. Tea-time presenter Sara Cox, Scott Mills, Rylan, and DJs Spoony and Trevor Nelson get stuck in, shovelling dirt, plastering and painting. Meanwhile, across town, the Getaway Girls choir are preparing a song to perform in front of the volunteers as a thank-you on reveal day.
Singer-songwriter Emeli Sande coaches the girls through their nerves, explaining she was a nervous teenager once too. Finally, the day of the reveal arrives. Zoe Ball arrives in town to broadcast the choir's anthem live to the nation and to get a sneak preview of the spectacular new building.
Before, the Getaway Girls activities had been spread out across town using temporary spaces. Now, the new building in Seacroft provides a much-needed safe space with facilities all under one roof: a music and media studio, counselling and activity rooms, a creche, offices and a garden. Getaway Girls is a Children in Need funded charity. It's been supporting young women across Leeds for 35 years; raising aspirations,
providing opportunities and offering vital counselling and support.
