We're incredibly proud of our three fantastic Great North Run 2026 participants who crossed the finish line and raised an incredible £1,627.75 for Age UK Sunderland! 🎉💜
A massive well done to:
⭐ Katie, our Finance Manager
⭐ Eva, our Day Services Coordinator
⭐ Chris from Stagecoach
Taking on 13.1 miles is no small feat, and their dedication, determination and hard work will make a real difference to the older people we support across Sunderland.
We would also like to extend a special thank you to Hitachi Construction Machinery for their generous £200 donation towards our Great North Run fundraising efforts. Your support has helped make this fantastic total possible and will have a real impact on the lives of older people in our community. 💜
A heartfelt thank you also goes to everyone who sponsored, donated, shared fundraising pages and cheered our runners on throughout their journey. Your encouragement and generosity mean so much.
Please join us in congratulating Katie, Eva and Chris on their amazing achievement! 👏👏👏
