Great North Run 2026

I’m running The Great North Run 2026 in the fight for breath!

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with lung disease. I want to make a difference. 

Myself and many others around me I know suffer with asthma and I have dealt with and seen the effects it can have. After a recent unexpected hospitalisation due to a severe asthma attack, I feel it’s even more important to bring more awareness to asthma and to educate others on the effects it can have and how to help those around you who may suffer with it.

I'm running The Great North Run for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs.

Just £24 could support a researcher at the start of their career to carry out an hour of lung health research to ensure we attract and keep the best scientific minds to focus on lung disease.

Any donations no matter how big or small would be hugely appreciated!
