Tomorrow, Friday 18 November, is BBC Children in Need day throughout the UK. As always BBC Radio Scotland will be doing all it can to help raise money for the charity with a series of special programmes throughout the day and we'll be running around taking photographs to share with you here on the blog.

Phonelines at BBC Scotland open at 0900 on Friday however until that time you can donate via the BBC Children in Need donation page.

BBC Radio Scotland Children in Need schedule:

0850-1030: Call Kaye

Over 350 children's organisations across every area of the country benefit from grants from BBC Children In Need. Kaye would therefore like to know whether you work for one of these organisations or a friend/family member has benefited from their support.

Fred MacAulay and Susan Calman will be coming live from the foyer of BBC Scotland's Pacific Quay. Richard Cadey will reveal how much money he has raised from his bob-a-job duties this week and a host of celebrities and BBC Radio Scotland presenters will be answering the phones, taking pledges and finding out about the random things people are doing to raise money. Weather presenter Cat Cubie and actor Tom Urie will be telling Fred what they are doing for Children in Need and Fred will be receiving a designer make-over!
