Run the Great North Run for Alzheimer’s Research UK. This iconic half marathon route will take you city-to-sea as you travel from Newcastle to the South Shields coast.

Story

3 years ago I suffered a heart attack whilst visiting my daughter up in Newcastle. This was a real wake up call for me and since then I have worked hard to lose over 3 stone in weight and improve my fitness level.

I'm now ready for my next challenge....to complete the Great North Run in the city which saved my life.

I sadly lost my beautiful Mum to Alzheimer's in 2021 and continue to watch my lovely mother-in-law live with this awful disease.

For this reason, I am proud to support Alzheimer's Research UK in their goal to find a cure for dementia.

Alzheimer's Research UK are the UK's leading dementia research charity. They exist for a cure!

Your donation will help their scientists and researchers find new ways to diagnose dementia, develop new treatments and find a cure for dementia.

Thank you for your support x
