My Story

I have worked for Wecan for 14 years starting my journey as a Support Worker and now Explore and Adult Service Manager!

I have not only watched our children, young people and adults grow up but also watched the charity grow and develop. 

I have always been the person behind the desk sending out the tokens to our runners and organissing runing vests....this year as a personal challenge I have decided to pluck up the courage and be involved. 

I have seen first hand the impact Wecan has had on many people. I would like to help support Wecan to continue to venture out to new and exciting places and also to continue to grow!

If you're unable to run and have to withdraw from the 2024 AJ Bell Great North Run, you have the option to defer your 2024 AJ Bell Great North Place to the next year.  You can find more information here.
