The BRCK Foundation is pleased to announce its three Charities of the Year for 2026, with each charity set to receive £10,000 in funding to support its important work.

Following nominations from businesses across BRCK, three charities have been selected to benefit from a combined £30,000 donation. Thank you to all the businesses that took the time to nominate a charity and help highlight the incredible work being carried out by organisations across the UK.

The 2026 Charities of the Year are:

Lighthouse – nominated by UPOWA

Lighthouse is the only charity dedicated entirely to the wellbeing of the construction community. It provides a 24/7 helpline and a range of support services to help anyone working in construction who may be experiencing difficulties or need someone to turn to.

Fair Play – nominated by Topek

Fair Play supports children and young people with disabilities, alongside their families. Through play schemes, youth clubs and family support services, the charity helps create opportunities for children and young people to enjoy positive experiences, build connections and take part in activities that support their development.

Research SMA – nominated by Towelrads

Research SMA funds vital clinical research into spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a genetic condition that affects muscle strength and movement. The charity supports research aimed at improving understanding, treatment and outcomes for people affected by this condition.

Supporting causes that make a difference

The BRCK Foundation's Charities of the Year initiative provides an opportunity to support meaningful causes nominated by businesses across BRCK, helping charities continue their vital work and make a positive difference to the lives of individuals, families and communities.

We look forward to supporting these three fantastic charities throughout 2026.
