We are pleased to confirm when we will be closed over the festive period.

The Brightwell team were absolutely thrilled to welcome Martyn and Sue Olds on Monday 24 November. Martyn, the Men’s Club Captain at Kendleshire Golf Club, arrived with an extraordinary gift: a cheque for an incredible £10,000!

Carers Rights Day 2025 will take place on Thursday, 20 November, spotlighting the critical need for the UK's millions of unpaid carers to “Know Your Rights, Use Your Rights”. This annual national campaign, organised by Carers UK, is a crucial opportunity to raise awareness of the legal rights, entitlements, and support available to those who dedicate their lives to caring for a family member, partner, or friend.

Yesterday evening, 13 November, we hosted our Annual Volunteers Thank You Party and what a fantastic night it was! Over 70 guests joined us for an evening filled with laughter, great company, and heartfelt appreciation. Guests enjoyed a delicious buffet, complimentary drinks, and fabulous live entertainment from Ben Hutcheson, the talented Bristol-based singer-songwriter. A big thank you to Ben for making the night extra special!

The festive season is almost here - and that means it’s nearly time for our Annual Brightwell Christmas Market! To make it a success, we’re asking for donations of items we can sell or use as prizes.

Acupuncture Awareness Week (AAW) is an annual campaign dedicated to educating the public about traditional acupuncture, a healthcare practice with roots in ancient China.

This Christmas Market is an absolutely fantastic way to get into the festive mood, The whole Centre is taken over with lots of stalls, games and an amazing raffle! The atmosphere is lovely, filled with music and some amazing refreshments. You can even say hello to Santa!

The Brightwell holds a bi-monthly Quiz Night. The excellent evenings are not only a great social event but also raise funds for our Charity. We have two brilliant quiz-setters, Gus and Mary-Jo McVeigh. The questions are topical and varied with the opportunity for teams to play their Joker and score those all important extra points. There is always lots of fun and banter.

Thank You to Our Volunteers and Bradley Stoke Town Council!
