Nigel Priestley, Senior Partner of Ridley & Hall Solicitors in Huddersfield, completed a gruelling London 10k run last Sunday 11th July. He ran with a team from the Family Rights Group, a charity in England and Wales that advises parents and other family members whose children are involved with or require social care services. They run a confidential telephone advice service for families.

Established as a registered charity in 1974, they work to increase the voice children and families have in the services they use. They promote policies and practices that assist children to be raised safely and securely within their families, and campaign to ensure that support is available to assist grandparents and other relatives who are raising children who cannot live at home.

They finished the run in just under 55 minutes and raised a fantastic £700.
At a time when there is a crippling shortage of foster carers and increasing Care applications underway, families are taking the strain.
FRG plays a vital role for families needing advice and someone to lobby on their behalf.
