CHARITY workers who want to set up a sports trust for young people are donning their running shoes.

Moving On, a small charity that provides support for homeless young people in Durham, is raising money to set up a sports trust.

It will enable young people to take part in activities they could not otherwise afford, by paying entrance fees for competitions or allowing them to use sports facilities regularly.

People connected to the charity are joining the Great North Run this weekend.

For information about the charity or sponsoring the runners, call 0191-383 1559.
