There are two ways to run for CCLG in the Great North Run.
A CCLG guaranteed charity place
Applications for guaranteed charity places close on 10 June 2025.
Apply for a CCLG charity place in the Great North Run. For one of our charity places there is a registration fee of £40 and we ask you to pledge to raise a minimum of £350 in sponsorship.
We review all our applications carefully, and will let you know the outcome of your application within two weeks of receiving your application. We encourage all our applicants to also enter the open ballot to secure your own place.
Unfortunately we cannot give places to everyone so please give us all the information you can about why you would love to run for CCLG.
A ballot place
If you are lucky enough to get a place of your own, we would of course love to have you running as part of #teamCCLG!
There’s no minimum sponsorship, just raise as much as you can.
Let us know that you're taking part for CCLG and order your free fundraising pack.
Why join CCLG?
Whichever way you choose to join us, we’d be delighted to support you. Your free fundraising pack includes advice and tips, sponsorship forms and a CCLG running vest or t-shirt.
Most importantly we will provide you with a reason to put in those months of training and fundraising, because you know that your efforts are going towards helping us to beat childhood cancer.
