Each year the Ten Live team nominate a charity and we are so delighted that CHAS, Children’s Hospices Across Scotland has been our chosen charity for 2017.

Through our dress-down Fridays, the Ten Live team has fundraised to support CHAS in the extraordinary work they do caring for children and young people with life-shortening conditions in Scotland.
