Im running the 2018 Great North Run on behalf of the fantastic Graham Wylie Foundation.

This fantastic charity helps to, educate and inspire underprivileged children of the North East, an area which is extremely close to my heart. Growing up in the North East has provided me with some amazing opportunities which have not only shaped my career but have shaped me as a person and the brilliant work that the Graham Wylie foundation does will create a new way of giving in the North East, which will benefit children in our region for generation after generation.

The grants provided by the Graham Wylie foundation help groups of children and young people in challenging and vulnerable circumstances. The Foundation is one of a rare few charities anywhere in the world to hand 100% of donations to deserving causes.


The foundation provides grants to, organisations and charities from across the whole of the North East for projects which will benefit youngsters in the region for years to come. Projects and causes currently funded include medical equipment, new buildings, support workers, sporting and youth groups. Graham has decided to meet all the overheads and running costs personally so every penny donated will go directly to the fantastic causes rather than day to day running costs of the charity.

Please donate anything you can to this fantastic cause and to support me during the GNR 2018.

And to top it all off... The Sage Foundation are going to match all funds i manage to raise.
