We can't wait to embark on this challenge together! Ryan has always dreamt of running the Great North Run and is excited to embrace the challenge of running a half marathon!!! 

Youth service spend in the North East has decreased by 96% over the last 9 years, yet the demand for positive youth provision to support a young persons development has only increased, particularly as a result of the pandemic.NE Youth was founded in 1935 and supports the development of children and young people aged 11-25 across the North East. Their mission is to provide a high quality, diverse and positive youth offer through their own services and by providing their members with relevant information, advice and support.I am taking part in the Great North Run this year to raise vital funds to support this mission and make a positive difference to the lives of young people across the North East.
