☀️ Small charity. BIG impact. ☀️

On Sunday 13th September I will be doing a half marathon to raise money for ‘The Sunshine Fund’ 🌻

I have done many marathons and even a double marathon before….. but that was walking….. this is my first ever running event. As a very much solo runner who has never even done a park run I am hoping the crowd will carry me……and hide my red face! 🤞🏻 🥵

The Sunshine Fund is one of the longest standing charities in the North East, committed to improving the day-to-day lives of children living with disabilities, additional needs and terminal illness in the region.

The charity funds specialist equipment that isn't available through the NHS, yet can open the door to new opportunities, improve wellbeing, allow families to create special memories, and encourage kids to reach their full potential.

This can be anything from an iPad to an all-terrain wheelchair, a sensory bundle to a mobile hoist, a car seat to a climbing frame or a trike to an adapted seat, and everything in between.

Over 130 people will be racing for Team Sunshine in this year's Great North Run, an iconic event in the region. All donations made will stay in the region, making a direct difference on the lives of local families.

Thank you 💛
