From Liverpool to London, and Glasgow through to Southampton, Global’s Make Some Noise helped almost 17,000 children and young people living with illness, disability or lack of opportunity over the next two years.

THANK YOU!

Here's where the money from last year's Make Some Noise day went- Capital Breakfast was able to surprise one of those charities, Jigsaw4u, a small charity based in London that helps children, young people and their families experiencing bereavement, with a cheque for £100,000!

The total is more than double the amount they were expecting to raise, which is a staggering achievement.

It also means Make Some Noise is funding the specialist support role for 2 years instead of 1, helping the charity to deliver over 700 group sessions and one-to-one support sessions.

Check out our video to see how we surprised 31 small charities up and down the country with far more money than they were expecting!
