Be the first to hear of exciting challenges and dare-devil opportunities to fundraise for TLC
Push yourself beyond expectations and join 60,000 people in the North’s most iconic race.
We’ve secured five spaces in the 2026 AJ Bell Great North Run. Sign up now to do something extraordinary and support safe, healthy, happy relationships across the UK.
The Great North Run is celebrating its 45th event this year. It features racers of all abilities from first time competitors to professional athletes. No matter your experience, you can join to beat a personal record, achieve a fitness goal, or simply have fun alongside thousands of others running at your pace.
By running for TLC, you’re helping us support vulnerable young people and adults who are experiencing a mental health crisis, recovering from domestic abuse, or navigating a significant relationship breakdown. Running with us makes you part of the team, and we’ll be with you every step of the way.
What should I know?
The 2026 AJ Bell Great North Run takes places on Sunday, 13 September. Racers must be at least 17 or older on the day of the event.
The starting line is in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne and racers will run 21km (a half marathon) to South Shields on the coast.
If you run for TLC, we will ask you to pay a £30 registration fee and commit to raising at least £300.
We unfortunately will not be able to compensate you for travel and accommodation.
How will TLC support me?
We’ll provide you with:
- A Team TLC t-shirt
- A fundraising pack to get started on collecting donations
- Email support for any questions you have throughout your fundraising journey
