Tinubu supports Martin's project for the Teenage Cancer Trust

This year, Tinubu is proud to support an employee in achieving something incredible for a good cause. 

After Tom’s solo effort in 2023, Martin took on a new challenge this year, joining Tom and the rest of the family in the iconic Great North Run to support the Teenage Cancer Trust.

The Great North Run

The Great North Run, held annually in September, is the world's largest half marathon, covering a scenic 13.1-mile course from Newcastle upon Tyne to South Shields in North East England. Celebrated for its lively atmosphere, diverse participants, and community spirit, the event attracts elite athletes and enthusiastic amateurs alike. The route, famous for its Red Arrows flyover and cheering crowds, is a key moment in many runners' lives, whether for charity fundraising, personal challenges, or simply for the experience.

This year, Martin and his family participated in the race to raise funds for the Teenage Cancer Trust, joining thousands of others who run for personal milestones and charitable causes.

About Teenage Cancer Trust,

Teenage Cancer Trust is a UK charity focused on improving cancer care for young people aged 13-24. Since its founding in 1990, it has established specialized hospital units to create youth-friendly treatment environments within the NHS. Alongside these units, the charity trains and funds cancer care experts who understand the unique needs of young patients, helping to ensure both high-quality medical care and essential emotional support.
