About us

Welcome! So you're thinking about taking part in the Great North Run and joining #TeamButterwick?

Set yourself a challenge this year and tackle 13.1 miles in the biggest and best half marathon in the WORLD! With an outstanding 60,000 motivated runners taking part every year, it truly is remarkable and a day to remember!

You'll feel a huge sense of achievement when you cross the finish line and the added bonus of knowing you're raising vital funds for Butterwick Hospice.

By joining #TeamButterwick in the 2023 Great North Run you will be supporting local people and their families affected by a terminal illness. Help us to add life to days when adding days to life is no longer possible. Thank you.
