My name is Jack Donnelly, I'm 18 years old from Gateshead. This year I have decided to run the Great North Run on behalf of team Bridgfords to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. I and my colleagues from Bridgfords lettings are aiming to raise a total of £25,000 throughout 2013 by competing in a number of events and this is one of them.

Any donations would be appreciated towards reaching my target of £500. Your donation will help to provide help and support to those who suffer from cancer and their families in times of deep need.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity. Please dig deep and donate now.
