Sophie’s Kitchen Disco became a huge sensation throughout the lockdown of 2020, lifting people’s spirits as they joined her, dancing and singing in their own kitchens across the UK.  Since May last year, multiplatinum selling Sophie has also been hosting Kitchen Disco mixes on Radio 2 and BBC Sounds.

“I love to dance, I love to ‘Kitchen Disco’, but can I keep going for a whole 24 hours?” says Sophie “I’m sure I can for BBC Children In Need... with the support of Radio 2’s fantastic listeners!”
