Children in Need Chair Resigns Over Grants to Controversial Charity

Rosie Millard has resigned as chair of BBC’s Children in Need charity after raising concerns about £466,000 in grants awarded to LGBT Youth Scotland, a charity linked to a child abuse scandal involving former chief James Rennie. Millard criticized the charity for a lack of due diligence and questioned the seriousness of actions taken by CEO Simon Antrobus. The grants were suspended amid allegations, and a review led to their eventual withdrawal. Meanwhile, LGBT Youth Scotland defended its reputation against what it termed ideologically driven attacks.
