Claire raises funds and awareness for @CRY_UK

Claire and Ellen at the Brentford Festival

Claire raised £250 by running a second-hand book stall at the Brentford Festival in Blondin Park, Ealing, on Sunday, September 7.

She was delighted with the amount but also pleased at how people responded to the Tom’s Fund stand: “Many people either knew Tom directly or had heard of him and knew about CRY. Many more stopped and looked at our display so we hope that we have helped to raise awareness.”

Claire thanked all those who had helped on the day.

The event runs until 6pm and there are plenty of things to do – more than 100 other stalls and a fun fair are among the distractions – so if you have a moment to visit it would be great to see you.

Good luck to Isa running for @CRY_UK

The Great North Run

Family friend Isabel Turner is running in the Great North Run tomorrow in memory of Tom.

Isa has already raised £2,500 for CRY and said “The run will be a really tough challenge for me but I will be spurred on every step of the way by the memory of Tom’s energy, joie de vivre and laughter which still feel so fresh.”

The half-marathon starts in Newcastle-on-Tyne and ends in South Shields.

A slice of summer supports @CRY_UK

Enid and Graham Maguire, friends of Tom’s grandparents, raised more than £200 for Tom’s Fund with a tea and cake sale at their home in Pyrford, Surrey.

Enid said: “We were pleased to raise money for CRY and awareness at the same time.”

Tom’s grandparents, Gordon and Margaret, attended the event and Margaret was among the cake-bakers.

The afternoon, a joint fund-raiser for CRY and the Samaritans, was held on a perfectly sunny afternoon on Sunday, August 3. The Maguires’ efforts benefited Tom’s Fund and CRY to the tune of £230.
