Amazing People of New Life
2024 was another record-breaking year for New Life and 2025 has got off to a fantastic start for the 30th year anniversary for the charity.
One of our largest sources of income is from the many events organised by our amazing volunteers. There really is something for everyone. You can take your pick and take part in the many sporting challenges and activities that we host such as Tennis, Golf, Cycling, Canoeing, Swimming or Walking. If sport is not your thing you can help us by joining in and having fun at our social events such as our Annual Ball in November, or one of our many music concerts and festivals.
