Katie McGlynn and Rob Mallard, who play Sinead Tinker and Daniel Osborne in Coronation Street, will take on this year’s Simplyhealth Great Manchester Run for charity Mummy’s Star.
The on-screen couple became patrons of the charity earlier this year following their heart-breaking storyline in which Katie’s character Sinead was diagnosed with cancer during her pregnancy.
Mummy’s Star is the only charity in the UK and Ireland dedicated to supporting women and their families affected by cancer during pregnancy, and last year worked closely with Coronation Street’s production and research team on the development of the sensitive storyline.
Katie and Rob will join thousands of people for the iconic run on Sunday 19 May, which is returning to the city for a 17th year. It gives runners the chance to experience an event like no other in the heart of the city centre, with 10k and half marathon courses known for their buzzing atmosphere and incredible local support.
