Applications will be reviewed in December 2026. After this time you can still apply, but may be added to our waiting list.
If you are successfully awarded a charity place, you will be asked to pay a registration fee of £40 and pledge to raise a minimum of £400 in sponsorship.
Please note that completing this form does not guarantee you a place in the Great North Run 2027. You will only be asked to pay the registration fee if your application is successful.
When you submit this form, it will not automatically collect your details like name and email address unless you provide it yourself.
We’d love to keep you updated about our work to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes, and how we support people with type 1. We’d also like to let you know how you can help by donating, volunteering or campaigning.
We may stay in touch by post or phone if we have those details from you, but it keeps our costs down if we can use email, meaning that we can invest more money in ground breaking type 1 research.
Please let us know if you’re happy for us to contact you by email:
