JOGGERS from Bolton are being urged to pull on their running shoes and raise funds for charity.

Galloway's Society for the Blind is asking them to run on its behalf in the Great North Run. The half-marathon from Newcastle to South Shields will be held in September. Galloway's Society for the Blind supports blind and partially sighted people across Lancashire. It costs more than £700,000 a year to carry out its work in the community.
