The team travels to Liverpool to completely refurbish Norris Green Youth Centre. The money Children in Need already give to this centre helps it provide activities for young people with few other options. But the building is falling down around them, and without the youth centre the youngsters will have nowhere else to go outside school.
Nick Knowles and the team are joined by guest designer Charlie Luxton. They join forces to enlist the help of the local community in Stoke and renovate a home for a family battling terminal illness. Dad Haydn Spice was diagnosed with abdominal cancer shortly after buying a derelict house at auction in 2004. Haydn's ill health meant that he couldn't work on the house, and his family have been left living in a building site. He and his wife and three daughters are all sleeping in one bedroom and trying to make the best of the time Haydn has left. Nick and the team head to the Midlands to rally friends, family and local trades to help turn the Spice family's derelict house into a comfortable home.
Nick Knowles and the team enlist the help of the local community in Durham to reconfigure a home and reunite a family torn apart by illness. Sixteen-year-old Kieron Purvis collapsed with an undiagnosed heart condition in December 2009. Following a heart transplant and a double amputation, the Purvis family found themselves living apart because their home was not equipped for Kieron's special needs. Nick and the SOS team issue a call to arms and rally friends, family and local trades to get the Purvis' home fit for them to live under the same roof after a year apart. (Stereo, Widescreen)
Nick Knowles and the team enlist the help of the local community in Aberystwyth to renovate a home for a builder with a brain tumour. Michael Saunders built an extension onto his house when his son- in-law's MS meant he had to start using a wheelchair. When Michael discovered he had cancer, he was unable to finish his own home and he and his partner were left living in a cold and draughty shell of a house. Battling against terrible weather conditions, Nick and the team head to West Wales to rally friends, family and local trades to help turn Michael's house from a building site into a comfortable home.
Nick Knowles and the team face their biggest challenge yet in this DIY SOS Flood special. Since the June floods, there are still many families still trying to renovate their houses back to liveable condition. The team head to Toll Bar, near Doncaster, and take on a foster family's house which found itself deep in water. Plus, they renovate the local club to provide a much-needed space for the people of Toll Bar.
