STAR of Coronation Street, Bury-born actress Nikki Sanderson, is to go on the run, with the police.
Nikki, who plays hairdresser Candice and is a former pupil of Affetside Primary and Tottington High schools, will join Greater Manchester's Chief Constable Michael Todd taking the baton from Adlington for a one-mile jog.
It is part of the police's Land's End to John O'Groats charity run, involving every force in the country in aid of children's charity 'When You Wish Upon A Star' which grants the wishes of terminally ill children. It is hoped the event will raise £250,000.
The run covers 3,000 miles and begins on Sunday. Police runners take the baton through Greater Manchester on June 14.
