As most of you will know, I am lucky enough to work at Overgate Hospice and I am proud to look after the patients that need our care.

Being at the Hospice I know how hard it can be to keep the doors open and we rely heavily on our community to raise the funds needed to keep the services going.

To help ensure the future of the hospice I have set myself a challenge, my mission is to run in this years Great North Run. I will be one of 57,000 people taking on this challenge on thw 11th September but one of only 25 running it for Overgate Hospice.

The Hospice needs our support more than ever, please show your support by making a donation towards Overgate's wonderful care.
