Jeremy Pattison  lives in Karles Close, Newton Aycliffe and travels to Leyburn for work.

His brother would have been 40 this year, so he has managed to convince nine colleagues with various sporting abilities, to run the Great North Run with him in aid of Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research, a charity which is very close to his heart.

Jeremy lost his brother Nicholas to Leukaemia,  at the age of 13 who died only 11 days after being diagnosed. Any reader who would like to help the fundraising please donate to http://www.justgiving.com/TennantsAuctioneers
