As you know, to mark the 25th anniversary of Pride of Britain in 2025, the Pride of Britain Fund is giving away £100,000 to supercharge the work of local heroes all over the country.

With the voting window having now closed, we are delighted to confirm that Northumbria Blood Bikes have been chosen by local communities all over the country to receive a grant of £2,500 towards our amazing cause!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for our charity!

Chad joined Northumbria Blood Bikes when he found myself sitting in NSECH hospital, in Cramlington, for end of life care with his Dad. Every evening he heard motorbikes pulling up below the window, outside the Pathology lab entrance. He found out that it was Northumbria Blood Bikes delivering notes. 

Chad’s reason for volunteering with our charity was featured on BBC One’s Morning Live on Thursday 6th March.

Our team at Northumbria Blood Bikes are all incredibly excited to watch BBC One tomorrow morning at 9:30am.

Join us to find out why…
 

Today our volunteer driver Ian collected milk from the Morpeth milk hub and delivered it to several neonatal wards across the region. Beginning with the Great North Children’s Hospital at the RVI, in Newcastle, then Sunderland Royal Hospital and finishing with James Cook, in Middlesbrough.
