Congratulations Hugo - GNR 2024!
Once again our fabulous Chair, Dr Hugo Minney has completed the Great North Run on our behalf. The Great North Run is a spectacular event for the whole region and it is so brilliant to see so many people running on behalf of so many charities.
We are always grateful for the time and effort Hugo repeatedly puts in to such an event. His barefoot running is a great conversation starter!
There is still time to donate. We appreciate any support you can give us!

St Joseph's Eco Ambassador Programme
Take a look at our fabulous film about our Eco Ambassador Programme at St Joseph's Catholic Primary School in Stanley. What an absolutely amazing group of children! They were enthusiastic and fabulous throughout the whole programme. This film includes our work in the schoolyard to improve the whole school surroundings and our trips to collaborate and work in the extended community.
