On 17th June Breakfast Show caught up with Grace House about there next event the midnight walk on saturday 19th June. Below is the interview in plus more information about the event.

Ladies, get your friends, family and colleagues together for a Saturday night out with a difference, where that ‘morning after the night before’ feeling is a great one!

Our second ladies-only sponsored walk will take place at Sunderland on Saturday 19th June. It is not a race but just a personal challenge to complete a 10km midnight walk following St Bedes Way along

the coastal path from Seaburn to the Wearmouth Bridge and returning, passing the Anglo Saxon St Peters Church, to Seaburn for a refreshing cup of tea and an early breakfast!

Whether you walk in memory of someone, or just as a personal challenge, it will be a night to remember and your sponsorship will help raise vital funds for the appeal and help children and their families across the North East.

Each entry is £15 (or £50 for group of four) This covers the cost of organising and running the event which means the sponsorship money you will raise will go directly into the charity and help to build

Grace House later this year. Every walker will receive a special Midnight Walk t-shirt, glow stick, medal and breakfast at the finishing line. Prior to the walk we will send you an event pack containing ideas on how to raise your sponsorship and those all important sponsor forms.

Volunteers (including men) needed too

Volunteers are essential to the running of this event e.g. marshalling the route, registering walkers,

serving refreshments etc. If you can help or can ask any family members including husbands, partners,

fathers and sons please let us know. Call us on 0191 516 6302 or let us know on the entry form.

Andy Muckles and Adam Callen were also on hand to fire questions Tony's way. Sunderland's Olympic bronze medal winner and 2008 North East Sports Personality of the Year was joined by his trainer Bobby Rimmer and also fielded the best of our listeners' emails and texts.

For all the very best sport this World Cup summer, listen every Wednesday 7-10pm for the 107 Spark FM Sports Show. Don't forget to take part in our Prediction competition and a chance to be on air, with us, next month.

All the details are on our all-new Facebook Group!

However, you could get a chance to be heard sooner than that. We are looking for English-based foreign football supporters backing one of the other 31 nations in South Africa this summer. For more details, contact us via the Facebook Group or email Andrew.Snaith@sparksunderland.com
