Story

Somehow AGAIN 👀 I agreed to run this years Great North Run on the 11h of September 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️.... As daft is it may sound, I'm sure you will agree it will be worth it, as I will be completing this half marathon in order to support Cumbria's Beep Doctors. 👩‍⚕️🧑‍⚕️🏥🚑❤

Cumbria's Beep doctors are all unpaid and are on call 24/7 – even during the Pandemic when many of them have been working in hospitals and the local community. BEEP Doctors are vitally important to the Cumbrian community and are able to treat the sickest patients on the roadside, in their homes or at work, providing care and intervention previously only available once a patient reaches the hospital. They attend serious incidents in the county including road traffic collisions, farming accidents or other life-threatening medical emergencies, as well as major Incidents. 

With the support and generosity of the people of Cumbria , they have managed to continue this vital lifesaving work for the last 25 years. I would like to think myself and those around me could somehow contribute towards their incredible work. Therefore I have set up this fundraising page. The smallest financial donation could make the hugest of difference to those nearest and dearest to us. 

During 2020 their team of dedicated doctors attended a total of 203 emergency callouts across Cumbria, from as far north as Longtown, to Egremont in the west, Millom in the south and up to Nenthead in the east. Lets support this fantastic team of people in order to continue their invaluable work. 

Follow me on strava for the training programme highs and lows! 🏃💢🥴
