Story

Hello, my name is Faye and sadly on 9th February 2025 my beautiful cousin, Harrison Harvey aged 25, was tragically killed whilst training to partake in the Great North Run 2025.

Harrison was doing this run to raise funds towards Alzheimer's as his Mum, Cheryl, was Diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's back in 2018 aged only 53.

Harrison can now no longer do this run anymore in his own body so I have promised to lend him my voice and body to raise his funds and complete his goal to do the GNR 2025 as him.

All money donated will go towards Alzheimer's Research UK, FROM Harrison and any gratitude would be owed to Harrison Harvey, this is HIS race and he will complete it.

Harrison never stopped trying to achieve his goals and this tragic accident will not take another thing away from him.

You will smash it Harrison, I know you will.
