Great North Run 2026

Katie’s fundraiser

As many of you know, last year we sadly lost my nana to ovarian cancer at the age of 66. She fought for 8 years with incredible strength — through four gruelling rounds of chemotherapy and major surgery.

I’m not a runner. I’ve never ran more than a couple of miles… so this is going to be a huge challenge for me. But if I have even an ounce of her strength, I know I’ll get to that finish line.

Every step I do i'll be doing for her, and for every family affected by this disease.

If you can, please spare a pound or two. Every penny helps fund vital research and gives more families the chance to stay together a little longer 💙
