On Sunday 7 September, I'll be lacing up my trainers and taking on the iconic Great North Run, covering the 13.1 miles from Newcastle to South Shields to raise vital funds for North East Autism Society!

For more than 40 years, North East Autism Society has led the way in providing autism-specific care and education for children and young people across the North East of England. NEAS passionately believes that autistic children and young adults have significant skills and strengths, which can be developed throughout their lifetime.

Thank you for your support.
