Posted 17 May 2004

A team of staff and students from Harper Adams University College, Newport, took part in the Race for Life in Telford at the weekend.

The Harper Adams team were (L-R) Bryony Allsop, student services manager, Sarah Long, MSc student, Jess Harrison, 4th year student, and Sarah Jessop, accommodation officer.

The women-only 5km race around Telford Town Park on Sunday (May 16) was one of a number of similar events being staged across the country this summer to raise money for Cancer Research.

The Harper Adams team were Bryony Allsop, student services manager, Sarah Long, MSc student, Jess Harrison, 4th year student, and Sarah Jessop, accommodation officer. All four finished in under 40 minutes and raised more than £350 in sponsorship. Last year more than 1,800 participants raised in excess of £89,000.
