A first for Ben for @CRY_UK

 

 

BBC news presenter Ben Brown is to run the Royal Parks Foundation half-marathon for Tom’s Fund and CRY on Sunday, October 12.

Ben said: “This is my first half-marathon, and I’m running it in memory of Tom, who tragically died seven years ago this month when he was just 14.”

Ben, who met Tom, added: “I worked at the BBC with Tom’s parents, Claire and Paul, who have both worked tirelessly for CRY. It’s an amazing charity which raises awareness about sudden cardiac death, which claims the lives of 12 people under 35 each week, if not more.”
