Great North Run places up for grabs!

Do you fancy taking on the world’s biggest half marathon to raise vital funds for Sunshine and Smiles?

Taking place on 13th September, the Great North Run is one of the biggest sporting events to descend on the North East every year and we’re very happy to say we have three places available.  Kicking off in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, runners tackle the 13.1 mile course all the way through Gateshead towards the picturesque South Shields coast. 

If you’d like to take part and raise money for Sunshine and Smiles, places are £60 each, please email Ailith - ailith@sunshineandsmiles.org.uk

For more information on the half marathon you can visit the Great North Run website.
