JDRF's vision is a world without type 1 diabetes.

At JDRF we are committed to eradicating type 1 diabetes. JDRF research has led to new developments in diabetes technology and treatment and is laying the foundations for a cure. We support everyone living with type 1 diabetes, by working with policy makers to increase availability of treatments and by providing information and resources to help people manage their condition.

Once again, JDRF are offering charity places in the Great North Run for 2024, and we want YOU to be a part of it.

The AJ Bell Great North Run is the world’s biggest and best half marathon, with 60,000 runners taking on the route from Newcastle to South Shields each year. It’s famous for its inclusive atmosphere, unbeatable on-route entertainment, and warm Geordie welcome, not to mention the millions raised each year for worthy causes. Great North Run magic can be hard to understand – until you’ve experienced it for yourself.

All the incredible runners taking on the Great North Run for JDRF will be raising vital funds for type 1 diabetes research. Be a part of something amazing, improve lives, and help to one day eradicate type 1 for good.
