I am running the Great North Run this year in support of Escape Family Support, a charity local to the North East of England who do so much good work in helping both people and families who have been affected by alcohol and substance abuse.
This is something I feel strongly about as I am part of a Saturday afternoon football team also set up to help people in recovery.
I would greatly appreciate anything you could spare to help this fantastic cause and thank you in advance for any donations.
07/09/2016 **Update** Unfortunately due to injury I will no longer be running the great north run as currently awaiting surgery on my left knee... My good friend David Cowen has kindly volunteered to run in my place and fundraise on my behalf for this fantastic cause!
