Events
We’re excited to be taking our events programme for 2023-24 all around the UK (and abroad), with a wide range of entertainment, sports, respite and challenge breaks, day trips and afternoon teas.
More details about each event will be published on this page and on our social media channels in due course, so look out for updates!
Alongside our core programme look out for many more community, fundraising, partner and challenge events from our supporter and beneficiary community – we’ll be promoting them on here and on our social media channels.
