I (Scott) have today (25/04/2018) decided that I'd like to run the Great North Run this year. 

I (Helen) was awarded a place in the Great North Run via the ballot and have since decided that I'd like to run for Anthony Nolan too.

We have chosen to do it for the Anthony Nolan Trust as we consider it to be a worthy cause and have known families and individuals that have benefited from the work they do, outlined in the brief statement below;

"Every day, Anthony Nolan saves the lives of people with a blood cancer or blood disorder. They do this by matching incredible individuals willing to donate their stem cells, to people who desperately need a lifesaving transplant. They also carry out cutting edge scientific research, fund specialist post-transplant nurses and support patients and their families through the transplant process and beyond. They won’t stop until they save the lives of everyone who needs a stem cell transplant. Every penny you donate brings them closer to that day."

Any donations will be gratefully received :)

Thank you all in advance!
