Our mission…


The Borders Children’s Charity exists to help children aged 0-18, living in the Scottish Borders, by relieving poverty, sickness and distress and advancing education.

We have been helping local children for over 50 years. While this marks a milestone it is also a sad fact that the BCC is now needed more than ever!
There are too many children in the Scottish Borders suffering from poverty or a disability or sickness or distress.

Our charity is run entirely by a committee of volunteers.  This means that, with minimal overheads, 99% of all donations can be given directly to our cause.
Please help us to help them.
99 pence in every pound raised goes directly to children in the Scottish Borders.

Providing financial assistance for children in desperate situations.
