Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are very lucky to have places in this year's Great North Run and we want Cancer Research UK to benefit from the opportunity we have been given - to run 13 miles from Newcastle Upon Tyne to the coast at South Shields. Our Dad was born in South Shields and we know the area quite well, having spent many family holidays in Northumberland. We have been training hard and are now quite excited to be joining approx 55000 participants on 11th September and to experience the famous Geordie welcome and support. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
