Taking part in a fundraising event for Bright is a brilliant way to support Northumbria NHS – helping patients, staff, and our local communities.
Whether you’re running a marathon, tackling a sponsored walk, taking a daring bungee jump, or organising your own challenge, every effort makes a real difference.
You can take part alongside colleagues, with friends and family, or go solo – whatever motivates you most.
As a registered charity, Bright uses the funds raised through these incredible events to enhance patient experiences, support staff well-being, and promote healthier communities across Northumbria.
Thanks to the energy, kindness and determination of our amazing fundraisers, we’re able to do more and more each year.
Take on an incredible challenge
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.
