Gordon's nomination story

Gordon is an amazing selfless man that puts the less fortunate first. Gordon supports two charities in his spare time. Firstly he raises money for El Buen Samaritan Orphanage in Caracas, Venezuela, doing multiple activities throughout the year to raise funds which he personally delivers as part of his annual holiday. Gordon has even donated all of his wedding presents (asking for money) to the cause as well as doing annual cake bakes at work to raise funds from colleagues and friends. In total over the last 5 years Gordon has raised over £8,000. In addition every year whilst the rest of us are eating our Christmas Dinner on Christmas Day, Gordon dons an apron at Chiswick day centre and cooks Christmas lunch for 60+ elderly people who have no family to celebrate with. Being a torchbearer for the Olympics would for once put Gordon first!
