BBC Children in Need - Core Costs Funding Stream
Details
Core costs support essential organisational and administrative spending. These are the key expenses required to keep your organisation running.

- Management and administration
- HR and payroll
- General office expenses
- Accountancy and audit
- Communications and outreach
- Monitoring, evaluation, and learning
- Governance, regulatory, and compliance costs
Core Costs grants are awarded as restricted funding. They must be used to cover your organisation’s essential running expenses.
