Why join Team Stroke?
As part of Team Stroke you'll get a free running vest, fundraising materials, training tips and fundraising advice, one-to-one support and we'll also be there on the day, ready and waiting to cheer you on as you run past our double-decker cheerbus! We'll also be waiting to celebrate with you post-event in the Charity Village, with plenty of drinks and snacks.
Everyone deserves to live the best life they can after a stroke. Taking part in the Great North Run means you are part of the team helping us to continue the work that we do, such as funding stroke support services and researching better treatments, care and rehabilitation.
If you have any questions, please contact our fundraising team at greatnorthrun@stroke.org.uk
