We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Roman Belle, Rob Dawber and Emma Wadforth (aka TEAM TGIF) for their incredible achievement in completing the Great North Run 2024 to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. Their research activities are funded by CRUK so this has been a great opportunity to further support cancer research.
The Great North Run is the world’s largest half marathon. This year, a record-breaking 60,000 runners competed in this annual event, running from Newcastle to South Shields.
Roman: “We’re thrilled to be part of this event, pushing ourselves to the limit and raising vital funds to help CRUK continue our ground breaking research.”
Our team members were delighted to be a part of this race alongside six other runners from Newcastle University’s Cancer Research UK Drug Discovery Centre, including Hannah Stewart who completed the race dressed as a scientist.

Congratulations also to our team member Tom Smith who completed the GNR 2024!
