One Show star Alex Jones is mentoring Eloise ahead of her challenge.
She said: “It’s a joy to be back with the Challenge Squad this year. These young people are truly remarkable – full of courage and determination.
“I’m so proud to be working with them and helping to share their stories with the nation. The challenges they’re taking on are no small feat, but we know they’ll each give it everything they’ve got.”
The Starlight Express production is joining this year’s Children in Need fundraising effort by donating a portion of ticket sales.
Staff will also do in-house collections during shows at the Troubadour Theatre in Wembley.
The theme of this year’s appeal is “challenge yourself”. To donate, please visit the fundraising page, external.
