Abermed Teesside has moved to spacious new premises at Preston Farm Industrial Estate, Stockton-on-Tees and on 15 July a reception was held to celebrate its official opening. The event was attended by Abermed staff and local clients from the Teesside area.  

Ricky Stevenson, Athlete with James Miller, Abermed’s Chairman and Chief Executive.

James Miller, Abermed’s Chairman and Chief Executive gave a speech about Abermed’s history and stressed the importance of Abermed’s core values. He went on to introduce Bryan Bennett, UKOH Managing Director for Abermed who welcomed everyone present and announced that local athlete Ricky Stevenson would be carrying out the official opening duties.  

Ricky Stevenson is a rising star in middle distance running and has already achieved considerable successes. Ricky lives in the Cleveland area and is a member of the New Marske Harriers, a local athletics club.  

Ricky began the year 2010 in style by winning the 4km race at the Bupa Great Edinburgh Cross Country in January and then set a personal best for the mile of 3:56.31 at the New Balance Games in New York later the same month which places him seventh on the UK all-time indoor list for the distance.  Ricky explained how he first became interested in middle distance running and talked about the training and level of fitness required to be successful in his chosen field. Ricky gave a very inspirational speech and all those present were extremely impressed with the dedication he maintains to his sport. Ricky is a healthy and motivated young athlete and Abermed staff were delighted that he came along to cut a ribbon which revealed a plaque to commemorate the occasion.
