Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 8th September 2024 I will be running the AJBell Great North Run in support of The Bodie Hodges Foundation.

The Bodie Hodges Foundation was formed in 2013, to support families who have been bereaved of a child of any age and to promote organ donation. Over the last 10 years we have listened to the families that we have met along the way and reflected on how our own grief has changed over time.

Our vision remains the same to give hope to families bereaved of a child by providing a range of services that support grieving families and encourage them to rebuild and remember.

The charity is run by its founders Nick and Donna and there are also employees and volunteers who have also experienced the death of a child. We believe that it is this love and understanding, alongside our lived experience that has enabled us to welcome so many families. We will continue to work hard to provide services that support families.

60,000 determined and dedicated runners make the AJ Bell Great North Run the World’s biggest and best half marathon – famous for its warm North East welcome, unbeatable atmosphere and the millions raised for good causes.

We’ll see runners back on the AJ Bell Great North Run, city to sea course, on Sunday as we return to our traditional finish line in South Shields. The AJ Bell Great North Run is an opportunity for us all to come together and support one another.
