Great North Run 2025

Be part of Team St Oswald’s Hospice and support North East adults, children and families. Limited charity places available now!

Sunday 7th September 2025

If you want to take part in the Great North Run this year we are delighted to offer a limited amount of charity places for you to run with Team St Oswald’s Hospice.

Now that the ballot results are out, this is your last chance to be part of this iconic event. Our places are filling quickly, so don’t miss out!

As a member of our dream team, you’ll be joining hundreds of other brilliant people in making a difference to North East families who rely on the support of the hospice. Your 13.1 miles will help our patients to enjoy trips to the seaside, relax with complementary therapies and spend quality time with their families. It will also support those who have been bereaved, give a hand to hold on the darkest of days and ensure that people are not alone at what might be the toughest time of their lives.

We’d love for you to join us this September.

Minimum sponsorship target and registration fee applies. See below for details.

Team St Oswald’s are proud to be sponsored by S and B EPS Ltd

Your Fundraising Pledge

We ask that all of our runners aim to raise £300 each through fundraising and sponsorship. This is because each runner’s place costs the hospice £144 based on the package we buy from Great North Run, to ensure the best possible experience to greet all of our supporters at the end of the event. Everything you raise beyond that will directly support the patients we care for.

We’ll send you a fundraising pack containing lots of advice and information, a sponsor form and regular email updates to support you. We are always at the end of the phone if you need us.

The sooner you sign up, the more time you have to fundraise. Spreading your target over several months takes the pressure off plus you have much longer to train too!

Secure your charity place now

Already got your own place? We’d love to welcome you to the team!

Please note: If you have secured your place through the Great North Run ballot or through the membership scheme and selected us as your chosen charity already, you don’t need to do anything – you are already in and should have received a link to your automatically generated Enthuse fundraising page, this can be edited by you to include your personal story, photos and your own fundraising target.
