At the Great North Run on 10th September, Andy, his son Jimmy, nephew George and friends Mathieu and Adam are doing a '9 in 9' team challenge - aiming to raise £9,000 by completing the course in less than 9 hours collectively.

We're fundraising for A Bed Every Night. Our target of £9,000 would fund roughly 300 night's safe accommodation and wrap-around support for people who would otherwise be rough sleeping.

Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity raises funds to support homelessness initiatives across the city region. Nobody in Greater Manchester should be without a safe, secure place to call home. Yet there are many for whom this is out of reach. It isn't right. Not anywhere, but certainly not here.
