We are delighted to have a committed and enthusiastic Barchester team taking part in the AJ Bell Great North Run on Sunday 10th September.
Our runners are:
- Gary Anson, Head Chef, Sherwood Court in Lancashire
- Gavin O’Callaghan, Maintenance Manager, Cedars Bourne in Lincolnshire
- Greg Wilk, Head of Maintenance, Cherry Trees in Warwickshire
- Taylor Dowes, Associate Project Manager, Barchester Project Team
- Tom Hodges, Dementia Nurse Specialist
60,000 determined and dedicated runners make the AJ Bell Great North Run the World’s biggest and best half marathon. Famous for its inclusive atmosphere, unbeatable on-route entertainment and warm Geordie welcome, not to mention the millions raised each year for worthy causes, Great North Run magic can be hard to understand – until you’ve experienced it for yourself on the Newcastle to South Shields route.
Our team is training hard ahead of the event in September – their pre-training includes running to and from work, organised 10k runs and triathlons. One of the team is even building up to a marathon later in the year in Budapest.
The runners are hoping to raise at least £1,500 collectively. Please follow these links to support your runner:

Good luck to the team and everyone else taking part in the Great North Run!
