High Tide Foundation is an amazing charity which has already come so far as we enter the 67h year of being there for the young people of Teesside and our amazing members. We gain greatly from our education members and business members, but we also wouldn’t have come this far had it not been for the fundraising involved. We would love for you to get on board this year as we take on The Great North Run 2019, raising money for the ongoing future of The High Tide Foundation and the programmes that we are able to offer to the young people of Teesside and surrounding areas.

We have places available and these will be on a first come basis. The discounted charity run registration fee of £50 will also be payable at your earliest convenience to secure your place. Each runner will have the aim to raise £300+ for The Foundation and in return receive a discounted registration fee, a running t-shirt for the day, an official High Tide hoodie and continued support throughout training.

"“This has been so educational, not only for the students but also the teachers; I had no idea of what really went on down here. This is great knowledge that I can take back with me and share with the other colleagues and students.”"

Teacher, Middlesbrough

""It was very informative and was definitely worth every minute. The speakers and staff were very kind and helped us all build a better understanding of the world of engineering. This was an insight I doubt I could have gotten anywhere else.""
