GNR 2026 Fundraiser for Billy’s Lifeline

Honouring Loved Ones Lost to Suicide & Supporting Those Still Struggling

💛 Our Mission

In 2026, we are taking on the GNR (Great North Run) in support of Billy’s Lifeline, a charity dedicated to preventing suicide and supporting those affected by it.

This run is more than a physical challenge — it’s deeply personal. We are running in memory of the loved ones we have lost to suicide and for those who continue to struggle in silence every day.

No one should have to face their darkest moments alone.

🕊️ Why This Matters

Suicide leaves a lasting impact on families, friends, and entire communities. The grief, the unanswered questions, and the “what ifs” never truly go away.

Billy’s Lifeline works tirelessly to:

• Provide support to people struggling with their mental health

• Offer help to families and friends affected by suicide

• Raise awareness and break the stigma surrounding mental illness

• Ensure people know it’s okay to ask for help

Every donation helps make these life-saving conversations and services more accessible.

👟 Our Challenge

We’re pushing ourselves to complete the Great North Run 2026, one of the UK’s most iconic half marathons.

Each mile we run represents:

• Someone we’ve lost

• Someone still fighting

• A commitment to change

This journey will be emotional, challenging, and incredibly meaningful — and we can’t do it without your support.
