Due to the Earth’s tilt and position around the Sun, things get very light and warm in summer for us in UK, and then winter becomes very cold and dark. But if you are on the equator, surely the amount of light you get won’t change much?

Excuse the length of day stays consistent, you won’t get the same hot/cold seasons you get in northern and southern latitudes.
What you will see though are other seasonal changes – primarily wet/dry seasons.
This can happen because weather patterns are BIG. So the fact that it is winter and cold in the North Pacific will alter things like the wind strengths and patterns, or the amount of moisture carried in the air, which will then travel down to the more Equatorial regions (being directed, deflected and altered by the intervening landmasses and currents) and alter the weather patterns seasonally there.
