Story

The Great North Run is the worlds biggest half marathon and is back for 2024 on Sunday 8th September.

Will you join the Headlight Project Team and run to raise vital funds and awareness of suicide prevention?

We have guaranteed places available, and the entry fee is £60. We ask all runners to raise £300 in sponsorship. If you have obtained your own place through the ballot, you can still run for us and there will be no entry fee payable to the charity.

All who take part will receive a running vest, and you can join us in the charity village where runners can receive a well-deserved massage and refreshments.

The Headlight Project aims to reduce the number of deaths by suicide in the Tees Valley, which has one of the highest regional rates in the country. We aim to achieve this by providing therapy to those bereaved by suicide, and delivering preventative education and training to schools, local businesses and the community.
