Advertising, Brands and Communications (ABC) Cup 2012

This is the 5th running of the ABC Cup since its launch in 2008 as a reinvention of the ‘Inter Agency Yacht Race’ that ran successfully for many years on the Solent.
The regatta is starts from Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth and its purpose is to raise money for Helen & Douglas House, the UK’s first children & young person’s hospice, located in Oxford.
Previous events have attracted entries from many of the big names in this sector, as well as teams from Lewis Silkin and Helen & Douglas House, the regatta ‘partners’.
The regatta is run in association with Britannia Corporate Events, one of the leading organisers of corporate events and industry regattas in the UK.
