On Saturday October 8th, 09:30-15:00, BBC Countryfile will be filming a Ramble around Holyrood Park in Edinburgh. Around 1000 walkers will take part, led by presenter Ellie Harrison. The film will be shown in November on BBC1 and will feature a family from one of our funded projects in Scotland (please note - this project has already been selected).
We would like to offer local projects the chance to join in the Ramble. Entry is by ticket only and we have reserved some free tickets for children, young people and staff/parents/carers from our projects. Children in prams and children/young people using wheelchairs are welcome (the walk is fully accessible). Each person must have a ticket assigned, and responsibility for children/young people must be taken by a family member.
We would love to see you there! Please note again that tickets are to join the walk only. While you will be part of the crowd taking part in the film, and it should be a great experience that is being repeated across the UK that weekend, only the specific story from one already selected project will be featured on tv.
As well as showing your support for BBC Children in Need in Scotland, you will get a

Given that tickets are very much in demand, we would like you to make sure that you can definitely use any tickets you request and accept - we would like to avoid no-shows on the day.
