Lauren Bowe has signed up to take part in the half marathon on September 8, raising money for the British Heart Foundation.
The RVN at Linnaeus-owned Kentdale Referrals in Milnthorpe was inspired to support the charity after her mum suffered a heart attack last year.
Lauren said: “I’m currently training hard for this year’s Great North Run, raising money for the British Heart Foundation, which supports those living with cardiac and circulatory diseases. I chose this charity after my mum suffered a heart attack last May.
“She continuously supports me in every challenge I take on and is always my biggest cheerleader.
“She’s also the most selfless person I know – even in recovery from her stent she was worrying if we’d eaten the dinner she was preparing when she had her heart attack!”
Lauren qualified as an RVN in 2016 and worked in general practice for three years before moving to Kentdale in 2020, where her colleagues have been fully supporting her fundraising mission.
She added: “I moved to Kentdale to develop my nursing skills and become more involved in-patient care. While here I’ve also been improving my knowledge in orthopaedic surgery and anaesthesia.
“It’s been great to have the support of my colleagues at Kentdale while I’ve been training for the half marathon.”
