CHILDREN from across Bolton have been going dotty for Pudsey as part of this year’s Children in Need campaign. 

The youngsters have been earning their spots by dressing up in yellow outfits and sporting a yellow theme in the name of the annual fundraising drive. 

Lots of fun-filled activities took place in schools and workplaces across Bolton today. 

Each year Children in Need sees the BBC provide grants to projects across the UK which focus on children and young people who are disadvantaged. 

They are local to people in all corners of the UK and support small and large organisations which empower children and extend their life choices. 

The cause currently supports over 3,000 charities and projects in communities across the UK.
