Any places will be offered on a first come, first served basis, but we cannot guarantee if or when a place will become available.
If you’ve got your own place and you’d like to support Saint Michael’s as part of #TeamPurple, we’d love to hear from you! We’re here to support you and your fundraising in any way you need us.
The Great North Run is the world’s biggest half marathon, with over 57,000 people taking part every year. Famous for its warm North East welcome and electric atmosphere, this event is not to be missed! The route takes you through Newcastle, over the iconic Tyne Bridge and on to the finish line in the picturesque coastal town of South Shields, where our team will be waiting to congratulate you after you cross the finish line.
By taking on this challenge and raising £300, you could help fund 8.5 hours of care for a patient staying at our Crimple House Inpatient Unit, enabling our team to provide expert support with symptoms and helping to bring comfort at the end of their life.
• A free Saint Michael’s Hospice branded running top
• Support from our friendly fundraising team from day one to ensure you reach your goals
• A fundraising pack bursting with top tips
• Regular e-newsletters
• Access to the North Yorkshire Hospice Care marquee in the Charity Village, where you will be greeted by our supportive fundraising team and lots of snacks to keep you going!
• All participants will also receive a Great North Run-branded medal and optional t-shirt upon completion of the run
Most importantly, you will be helping to support local people when they need us at the most difficult of times.
