Adrienne takes part in the Great North Run 2024

“A terrific journey from the moment I signed up. I really enjoyed the support and the reaction from donors was inspiring too. I thought I was not the kind of person to do anything like the Great North Run, but it was a blast from the start to the finish line!”
