Great North Run 2026

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

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with lung disease. I want to make a difference. 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 support would be amazing in my fight for lung health!

Breathe easy!

Friday 19th Sep
To breathe with ease is a must. 

I lost my nan and my mom to COPD. So to see the difficulties to breathe is challenging. Gasping for breath, or being attached to an oxygen cylinder is heart wrenching. Unfortunately, in our family, it seems to be hereditary. My auntie also had the lung disease.

 I have recently been diagnosed with COPD too. Luckily for me, it is in the early stages and is being monitored. I am doing all I can to prevent the disease from worsening. And I will continue too. 

I know the difficulties of breathing with ease, I know a lot of people who suffer with asthma. Let’s work together to support so many people to take that breath, to breathe with ease.

Thank you to my Sponsors
