Hey everyone, Tommy here…
June 5th will mark ten years since I set up WTF1 and to celebrate our 10th anniversary, we’ll be holding a charity race to support the NHS Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospital.
Last year, my brother-in-law Tom sadly passed away after a long fight with heart disease. Without Harefield Hospital’s support we wouldn’t have had Tom in our lives for as long as he was, nor would his baby daughter be in this world.
Harefield are in desperate need of funds to help redevelopment of the hospital and we want to help them as much as we can.
