Story

Hello everyone!

I’m both delighted and absolutely terrified to share that I’ll be running the Great North Run 2025—my first (and probably last!) race. I’ll be raising funds for Teesside Hospice, a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart.

As one of the clinical sisters at Teesside Hospice, I have the privilege of witnessing first-hand the extraordinary care and support we provide to patients and their families facing life-limiting illnesses. Teesside Hospice is a charity that relies heavily on donations to offer specialised palliative care, emotional support, and guidance to those in our community during some of their most challenging times.

To help continue this vital work, I’m taking on the challenge of the Great North Run to raise much-needed funds for Teesside Hospice. Every donation will go directly toward ensuring we can provide compassionate care, comfort, and dignity to those who need it most.

By supporting me, you’re not just cheering me on for the run; you’re helping Teesside Hospice make a real difference in the lives of our patients and their loved ones. Any contribution, big or small, is greatly appreciated and will have a lasting impact.

Thank you for your generosity and support!

With love,

About us at Teesside Hospice.

We’re changing lives across Teesside by supporting people and families who’ve been affected by a terminal illness.

We help them to make the most of every day, ensuring they receive the best possible care by creating experiences and memories that last a lifetime.

Everybody gets treated as an individual, whether it’s physical, mental or emotional support they need from us. We support people to stay as independent as possible, for as long as possible.

We’re bringing people together. From patients, family and friends to our clinical team, counsellors, staff, volunteers and our fundraisers. We make sure that everyone gets to live well until the very end.

We were founded by local people and will always be here for local people. We understand their lives, the community and culture so we are incredibly well placed to offer highly personalised levels of care.
