The Peter Green Award / Great North run sponsorship

Northern Stage is setting up a new training scheme, the Peter Green Award, named after our Production Manager who very sadly died in October 2007. Each year one young person will receive an individually tailored placement with Northern Stage's workshop and technical teams, to help them take their first step towards launching a career in theatre production. You can find out more about the award here.

On the first anniversary of Peter’s death, Susan Mulholland, Northern Stage’s Participation & Learning Co-ordinator, will be running the Great North Run to fundraise for the Award.



Susan says:

"I am looking forward to what will be my fifth Great North Run and it feels very special to be doing this one to raise funds for the Peter Green Award. Everyone at Northern Stage, along with his family and friends, believe this training scheme is a very appropriate and long-lasting way to celebrate Peter’s memory and I hope you can help us realise his dream.”

PS “Please feel free to come and cheer me on, especially at the 10 mile mark when I won’t be feeling so great!”

Please sponsor Susan by donating on line. On our donations page, please choose the amount you would like to give to the award, and select add to basket. Your donation will be processed like a normal ticket transaction (and can be combined with a normal ticket purchase).

We will then contact you by email to ask your permission to claim Gift Aid on your donation. This will allow us to claim back your income tax in addition to your sponsorship. (Donors must pay enough UK income tax and/or capital gains tax themselves to cover the amount of tax the charity will reclaim.)

All funds received will support the Peter Green Award.
