Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As part of 'Team George Stephenson' I completed my 17th Great North Run this September to help raise funds for our school's (George Stephenson High School) chosen charity, Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. We aim to raise a minimum of £10,000 this year. This charity was very dear to the heart of the beautiful Helen Robertson, a wonderful teacher and much missed friend. Helen sadly died in August last year as a result of a rare complication called Amniotic Fluid Embolism whilst giving birth to her gorgeous daughter, Niamh. Niamh didn't get the chance to meet her amazing mum - by raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People we hope to help keep Helen's memory alive. Thankyou to all of the generous people who have already sponsored me, I really appreciate it. This page will stay open for a good while longer than my legs will ache, so if you haven't already done so you can still sponsor me!
