Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are running the Great North Run 2016 in order to raise money for the amazing charity that is Bloodwise! The charity is the new name for leukaemia and lymphoma research. As both of us are student nurses, we have seen many people and their families affected by these awful illnesses, so we want to raise as much money as we can for this charity and their fantastic research! 

We are running it as part of the Wensleydale Fundraising group, who do a lot of work for this charity and have already raised a lot of money for this great cause. We want to keep adding to this so we would be very grateful for any donations given. 

The furthest we've actually ran is 10K, so this isn't going to be an easy challenge for us so if you'd also like to come support us on the day, the event is taking place in Newcastle on Sunday 11th September 2016. Any support and donations would be very much appreciated from us both!

Thanks very much for reading,

Emily and Jess
