ABP's Team- John Jarvis, Simon Stafford Allen & Charles Staples race that took place on 5th May 2013 - Grand East Anglia Run 2013 10K run. Following on from their first venture in last year's race, the ABP Team entered the run this year to raise more money towards the "Rudham Children's Ward" at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn. There was a fresh pair of legs this time with Charlie joining the team, and after building up the miles training on the treadmill & roads, the day itself was a great success for all.

To make sure any donations go specifically to Rudham Children's Ward, cheques need to be payable to "Rudham Children's Ward". We hope to have raised almost £1000 in cash sponsorship prior to race day, which will be used to buy specific items from a list' and that way again it will be solely for that ward's use.

This ward is part of the Children's Services provided by Queen Elizabeth Hospital NHS Trust. Rudham Ward is a 23-bedded, acute general paediatric ward plus 5 Assessment beds that cater for children from the ages of 0 to 16.
