We have a calendar jam packed full of events this year and we hope there is something for everyone, to help us to make a difference at our family of five hospitals.
Here are a few of the things you can get involved in this year:
If you are up for the challenge of a lifetime then why not sign up to take part in our bespoke skydiving day on Sunday 15th July and help to raise funds for our family of five hospitals.
After climbing to 14,000 feet you will exit the aircraft with your highly experienced British Parachute Association Instructor and freefall for 30 seconds, reaching a speed of about 120 miles per hour! Your descent under the large parachute will then take several minutes, and family and friends can watch and cheer as you make your landing.
The jump takes place at Black Knights Parachute Centre in Cockerham, Lancaster. For more information, or to request a registration form, contact Clare in the charity office on 0161 276 4404 or e-mail clare.mcmanmon@cmft.nhs.uk.
Alternative dates are available.
If you are taking place is the Great Manchester Run this year, why not use your place in support of one of our hospitals. Not signed up yet? Then we have a number of guaranteed entry places for the 10k event on the 20th May. Why not make it a family sporting weekend and get the kids involved in the mini and junior Manchester run. Contact our events team on 0161 276 4404 to find out more.
Take the plunge and join Manchester's one mile open water challenge in Salford Quays on 1st July 2012.
Join our running team for the world's biggest half marathon taking place on the 16th September. We have guaranteed entry places available with demand expected to be high.
Join us at the first ever Great Manchester Cycle on Bank Holiday Monday 4th June 2012. There are three distances - 13 miles for families and beginners, 26 miles for leisure cyclists and 52 miles for club cyclists. We have limited places available and want to hear from people who are keen to support the charity.
Fancy the trip of a lifetime? Then why not consider taking on an overseas challenge in support of our hospitals. You could go trekking in Vietnam or cycling in Europe.
