Tom's nomination story

To know Tom is to know a true athlete, somebody who goes the extra mile every day to inspire and drive others to achieve their goals. 3 years ago Tom decided to inspire and drive a team of associates and managers to better themselves and get fit in the process by creating a team to cycle the London to Oxford cycle event in aid of charity. Being part of the team that Tom created was a great honour and helped me to enjoy cycling again whilst also getting fit. Tom organised everything for this event from the people in the team to making sure everybody got there safely. Tom being Tom couldn't just stop with the one event, and the following year he went on and got the team together again to take on the bigger challenge of the Birmingham to Oxford cycle event, which was longer and more challenging. Thanks to Tom's inspiration and drive, I have continued to cycle for enjoyment and continue to enter cycle events with my team to raise money for various charities.
