Great North Run 2008 · 5 October 2008 ·

We support thousands of people living with terminal illnesses & their families, in our three hospices, via our patient & family support services, and in the community through Myton at Home. We need to raise £12.7 million this year to provide our services free of charge – we can’t do it without you!

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

Insanely, I’ve signed up to do the Great North Run, which I can assure you took a great deal of persuasion from some good friends of mine.

This is my first half marathon (and probably the last) so it will be a massive achievement for me - especially given the fact I don't even like running and eating pork pies is far more enjoyable!!

My nominated charity is the Myton Hospice in Warwick. I'm running in memory of my Dad who died from cancer in 2000. I’ve always wanted to raise some much needed money for Myton – so I’m giving this a bash!

I’m sure you have had someone in your lives touched by this relentless illness, so please donate some of your hard-earned cash in return for me for running, walking and most probably crawling my way to the finish line  – it doesn’t matter how much, every little counts! 

Thank you to everyone in advance for your support, donations and advice. Looking forward to a pint of the black stuff in South Shields at the end of the race!!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Myton Hamlet Hospice Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me!

Many thanks for your support.

Simon
