Support Leanne Storey & Angie Freeman in the Great North Run

This September, we (Leanne Storey and Angie Freeman) are taking on the Great North Run in support of the incredible St Bede’s Hospice.

Closes 31/12/2025

We want to improve the experience of our hospital for our patients by purchasing extra equipment or training which will make the difference. If you wish to support a particular ward or department, please state which one in your message and our finance team will ensure it goes to the right place.

Story

This cause is especially close to Leanne’s heart. In 2024, her beloved Grandma Freda was admitted to St Bede’s following ongoing health issues. Freda, who never liked hospitals, was able to spend her final days in a warm, peaceful environment surrounded by family — all thanks to the compassionate care provided by the hospice staff.

Freda was truly the best grandma anyone could wish for — kind, strong, and deeply loved by her family. Her presence is missed every single day. Leanne is running in her memory, hoping to raise funds to help other families experience the same care and support they received.

Angie is joining Leanne every step of the way, knowing how much Freda meant to her and how important this run is.

We would be so grateful for any support — big or small — to help us raise money for this amazing charity that does so much for so many.

Thank you 💙
