Having worked in Further Education in Wales for over 30 years, I look forward to inviting colleagues at colleges throughout Wales to identify staff and student representatives from their institutions to join our Regional Steering Group and building a legacy network in Wales to steer and guide the work of the British Inspiration Trust and ensure the annual BRIT Challenge is a success at every Welsh College.
Together we have the opportunity to ensure the BRIT Challenge has a positive impact on how we improve mental health and wellbeing, explore how we can engage students and staff of all abilities, destigmatise mental health and champion equality, diversity and inclusion throughout Wales.”

“At Swansea University we have a very proud sporting heritage, so it comes as no surprise that we have embraced this project and its aims. After meeting Phil, and seeing the commitment that carries the BRIT Challenge forward every year, it is self-evident why it has gone from strength to strength.
Raising awareness and supporting young adult mental health are essential and to do so in such an inclusive way makes this a truly unique project. This is our chance at Swansea University, alongside our sister Welsh universities, to promote physical activity, mental wellbeing and to raise money for worthwhile causes.
We look forward to playing our part in making 2023’s event another success through our new Get ACTIVE programme and we hope that as many of our students and staff as possible sign up and take on the Challenge.
The Challenge itself may only be for two months but we hope it will have a lasting impact on the people who take part and those who benefit from its help”.
Professor Paul Boyle CBE FRSE FBA
Vice-Chancellor
Prifysgol Abertawe / Swansea University
“The University of South Wales (USW) supports the British Inspiration Trust’s BRIT Challenges, and we are delighted to be taking part again in 2023.
We are very aware of the pressures upon staff and students and finding ways to assist them in managing their mental health and wellbeing is a priority. The annual BRIT Challenge complements our existing strategy. Our aim is to encourage the whole university and our Students’ Union to participate; be that completing a mile for mental health on University Mental Health Day, adding distance to our 23,000-mile BRIT Challenge target, 23 minutes of physical or wellbeing activity for 23 days, or, being involved in 23 acts of kindness in the community.
USW are committed to supporting and championing BRIT to ensure the annual BRIT Challenge becomes a legacy event and that every university and college in Wales enters teams to ensure that together, we can support and improve the wellbeing of students and staff throughout Wales”.

“Student and staff health & wellbeing is a priority at Bridgend College. We promote Active Wellbeing as one of the core elements of looking after physical and mental health.
BRIT does an amazing job with this annual challenge to unite young people across the UK and we are inspired by the vision of the organisation to grow and develop. We support BRIT due to the inclusive nature of the challenge, all students and staff can get involved. It is great to initiate conversations about the importance of physical activity on our health and talking about mental health within our College but also in the wider community."
