Since joining Newcastle United, I have been very impressed with the work that the Newcastle United Foundation do in the local community. I already had a ballot place in this years Great North Run, so I thought running it for the Foundation would be a great idea.

I hope to raise both awareness and funds to help the Newcastle United Foundation continue their great work. Please consider making a donation to my fundraising page. Every contribution, no matter the amount, is greatly appreciated.

Newcastle United Foundation provides meaningful opportunities to improve the lives of thousands of children, teenagers, adults, families, and older generations. Through their education, sport, personal development, and wellbeing programmes, they help everyone to be more active, learn new skills and feel happier and healthier.
