“The Sport Relief mile is a family fun event, helping people to get involved in running while raising money for good causes at the same time.”

Mr Morris said:“I am delighted to support Run Peterlee and encourage local people to get behind their fundraising efforts for Sport Relief.

“I am looking forward to the event which I am confident will raise a lot of money for charity and I hope will inspire more people in East Durham to participate in sport and Run Peterlee”
