Events & Challenges

We have partnered with Run for Charity and Sky Blue Adventures, giving you access to the biggest and best challenge events in the UK and beyond.

Whether you’re doing it independently or with a team, we’re sure to have something that suits you.
Doing this for Bright means you register for a fraction of the price – in return, we ask for some fundraising action!
Our team are here to support you with your fundraising journey.

We want you to enjoy these challenges; safely and be prepared for them physically and mentally.
Events and challenges are taken at your own risk and you should adhere to organisers health and safety guidance.
If you are organising your own event, you should adhere to the Fundraising Regulators Code and guidance
and seek advice from the Bright Charity fundraising team if you are unsure.

*Infection Prevention & Control Guidance – please consider the following:

Bake sales / coffee mornings:
Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has a legal responsibility for the safety of food provided to the people in their care and to protect patients and staff from food borne illnesses and the Trust can take no responsibility for food produced off the premises or any food brought into hospital.
Consideration must also take into account allergies as per “Natasha’s Law” as this stipulates that all ingredients should be listed in order to protect those with allergies and also the area in which food has been prepared should meet food hygiene standards.
Please do not use fresh cream in any bakes – this is considered a high risk.

Decorating your area / fancy dress:
– Decorations are permitted as long as these are removed the day after the event.
– Fancy dress is permitted as long as you remain bare below the elbow.

If you have any questions, please contact us for more information.
Most importantly, enjoy your fundraising and thank you – you will be making a huge difference!
