Set Yourself a Personal Challenge + Support PTSD Resolution

This September 57,000 runners and fundraisers from across the UK will converge on Newcastle upon Tyne to take part in the 2022 Great North Run - the world’s biggest half marathon. Will you be one of them?

PTSD Resolution has 4 tickets available for four valiant supporters - so why not set yourself a 2022 challenge and run for us - while raising much needed funds for UK Veterans, Reservists & families?

Founded in 2009, PTSD Resolution provides therapy for Forces ’ Veterans, Reservists and their families. Therapy is free, effective and delivered both promptly and locally through a UK-wide network of 200 therapists - with treatment also available online or by phone.

We are a lean operation with no salaried staff or assets, yet has had well over 3,000 referrals to date. Therapy is delivered across an average of six sessions, with 78% of cases seeing an improvement in reported symptoms. - For more see www.PTSDResolution.org

After a bumpy few years 2022 will see the Great North Run return in fighting form. The iconic 13.1 mile city-to-sea course will end in South Shields, the traditional finish line, and the free in-run pint and post-race fish & chips are back on the agenda!

It’s a history and culture packed event: the race was devised by BBC Sport commentator Brendan Foster (former Olympic 10,000m bronze medallist) and Mo Farah took the top spot in 2016 - but the Great North Run is for everyone. Increasingly the GNR is all about raising money for charity, often in fancy dress!

So, how does it work?

If you run for PTSD Resolution you will receive:

1. A Great North Run ticket (usually £59) - we will manage the registration for you
2. A 100% cotton PTSD Resolution t-shirt or running vest
3. A PTSD wrist band
4. A race number & timing chip (for accurate race time) - courtesy of the Great Run Company
5. A Finisher’s Pack - containing a medal, t-shirt, a drink and a space blanket

What we ask of you:

1. All we ask is that you are able to raise a minimum of £480

Each course of PTSD Resolution therapy costs £750 - so each £750 raised is a life potentially saved. (If for some reason you can ’t run, let us know and we can pass on the ticket - or you can defer it until the following year)

Interested? Please email isabelle.mills@ptsdresolution.org to claim your ticket. We will register you with the Great North Run and send you a link. We will help you set up a JustGiving page and support you all the way across our social media - so you have the best shot at raising some serious funds for UK Veterans, Reservists & families.

With your help we can help those who are struggling to settle back into a normal work and family life because of military trauma.

Every mile, every donation, makes a difference.
