A dedicated team of 25 runners conquered the Arla Protein York 10k despite the rainy conditions, collectively raising an impressive sum of over £2,500 for York & Scarborough Hospitals Charity.

Made up of hospital staff and dedicated supporters from the public, the team's efforts will directly fund improvements to staff well-being and patient care. The money raised will be used to enhance hospital environments and services, funding projects that go above and beyond what is possible with standard NHS funding.

Seasoned runner, Martin Pepworth took on the York 10k and shared his thoughts on the day  “What an amazing atmosphere at the York 10k! The flat course made it perfect for chasing a personal best or even tackling your first 10k. It was great to be part of an event with so many people passionate about supporting York & Scarborough Hospitals Charity".
