In a few words, please explain why you would like to take part in the Great North Run for St John's Hospice.*
Please confirm you are fit and well enough to take part in the Great North Run*
- Yes
If you do not feel you are fit enough or well enough to run the Great North Run, please do not submit an application. It is a gruelling physical challenge and your health and well being is the most important factor.
Do you have any pre-existing conditions that might be worsened by taking part?*
- Yes
- No
Please be as honest as you can. A pre-existing condition may not preclude you from running, but we would need to know about it.
Please give us more detail about your condition.*
What is your motivation to support St John’s?*
We ask that everyone who has one of our charity places raises at least £300. How much do you think you could raise? How would you go about your fundraising?*
Does your company, or employer, have a matched giving scheme that you can apply for to boost your fundraising?
If so, please give details here.
If my application is successful, I pledge to raise a minimum of £300 (excluding gift aid and matched funding) for St John’s Hospice.*
- I agree
Each place costs the charity money to buy. As a result if you are successful in obtaining a St John’s hospice charity place in the Great North Run, we will ask that you pay a non-refundable registration fee of £40 to St John’s Hospice. I understand that this registration fee does not form part of the minimum £300 sponsorship requested.*
- I agree
Declaration: I wish to apply for one of the St John’s Hospice charity places at the 2020 Great North Run and understand that, should I receive such a place, it will remain the property of St John’s Hospice. I pledge to raise a minimum of £300 for the charity. If I have to pull out of the event for any reason, I will have to reapply the following year. Any sponsorship that I may have already received, both online and offline, will be my responsibility to offer back to my supporters. This is in accordance with the Fundraising Regulator.*
