Join Newcastle Hospitals Charity for the Great North Run
Sign up now for a Charity place in the iconic Great North Run (GNR) 2021.
Join Newcastle Hospitals Heroes for the world’s biggest half marathon and generate valuable support for our Charity.
This year GNR comes back bigger and stronger celebrating its 40th anniversary after it was cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 Pandemic.
The call comes after the organisers Great Run Company have announced that the only way to sign up to the Great North Run 2021 is via a Charity place.
This is due to the popularity of the rollover option for 2020 GNR entrants after the 2020 event was cancelled due to the Pandemic.
