Join our Great North Run team today.

On Sunday 9th September 2018 50,000+ people will take part in the world's biggest half marathon.  At 13.1 miles from Newcastle to South Shields the Great North Run is a legendary event.  We want you to join our team and help make a difference to the lives of patients across the North East of England.

Today our volunteer driver, Malcolm Cramman, collected another consignment from the RVI Special Care Baby Unit to relay with Whiteknights Blood Bikes. They transferred it to Blood Bikes Manchester who then handed over to Merseyside & Cheshire Blood Bikes before it was delivered to the Northwest Human Milk Bank in Cheshire.

Glorious weather for those participating in our third annual 360 Challenge. Today gave us the perfect opportunity to showcase our brand new addition to the fleet, automatic 4x4 Skoda Octavia, purchased thanks to the Aviva Community Fund. This vehicle will help us immensely during adverse weather.
