At Brighter Consultancy, community is at the heart of everything we do. This season, we're incredibly proud to announce our sponsorship of British Heart Foundation FC for the 2026/27 campaign.
Earlier this year, on 9th February, our CEO, Dean Manning, and his family experienced a devastating personal loss when Dean's father-in-law, Steve, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly due to heart failure. His passing has had a profound impact on the family, and it is something they continue to navigate together.
Reflecting on Steve's influence, Dean said, "Steve was, and always will be, incredibly special to me. He was someone who always offered support, advice and guidance, but above all else, he was a genuinely great friend who always knew how to make people laugh. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Steve, and family was at the heart of everything he did."
In Steve's memory, Brighter Consultancy has chosen to become the principal sponsor of British Heart Foundation FC. A team that not only brings people together through football but also raises awareness of heart conditions and supports the vital work of the British Heart Foundation.
The funds raised help to drive pioneering research, improve early detection, and provide life-saving support for people living with heart and circulatory diseases.
This sponsorship is our way of honouring Steve's memory while supporting a cause that means so much to Dean, his family and everyone at Brighter Consultancy.
We look forward to working with the fantastic team at British Heart Foundation FC throughout the season and sharing updates on their achievements as the campaign progresses.
