Run for Newcastle Hospitals Charity

If you have a place at this year’s AJ Bell Great Run, why not run for Newcastle Hospitals Charity.

Help us raise urgently needed funds for life-changing projects right here in the North East. 

We all know someone who has been cared for by the dedicated medical staff at one of our great hospitals. Newcastle Hospitals Charity goes further for our staff, patients and their families. We raise funds for the RVI and Freeman hospitals and for the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation and the Great North Children’s Hospital that make a difference to people when they need it the most.
