“Swim for Tom” is much more than just fundraising. It is about community, it’s about coming together for an amazing cause. It’s about changing the outcome for the 1 in 2 people that will get cancer. Please support our last ever swim on Sunday. Register at https://t.co/tpxcYqiwIW

It’s a bit wet and windy, but it’s “Music for Tom” day, raising money for Tom’s Fund @cancer_wales. If you are out and about in Monmouth please pass by the Christmas tree at the bottom of town, by Coffee 1 and support our amazing buskers from @Habsmonmouth xx

A few weeks ago, Tim and I met with @cancer_wales and were given a copy of Theo Morin’s PhD thesis. Theo was the first recipient of the CRW Tom Walker Studentship. Thank you to everyone who helped fund this work. We will continue to fundraise in memory of Tom x

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

We made this film during Walk for Tom 2023. Our family, friends and community continue to support our fundraising, building a legacy for Tom, supporting life changing research. We will be forever grateful to everyone that has contributed and who remembers our beautiful boy xx

Thank you so much to Tom’s friends; Archie, Barney, Dylan, Harry and William for absolutely smashing the 3 peaks challenge in his memory and raising so much money for @cancer_wales #rememberingTom

[R Thomas-Hewartson @rth3012]

Well done @bArNeY131104 So proud of you ❤️

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

Team “Walk for Tom: 3 Peaks Edition”. Holly, Tim, Archie, Barney, Priyanka, Hannah, Anneli, Harry, William, Dylan and expedition lead Joe from @JTExpeditions. An amazing team. https://t.co/o4FtWKmVhu

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

So team “Walk for Tom” made it to the top of Yr Wyddfa and are safely down. An incredible effort by all. They are aching, exhausted and hungry but we are so proud of them. There is still time to donate - thank you to everyone who has so far.

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

So all of our amazing team are safely back down from Scafell Pike and making their way over to Eryri to make their ascent of Yr Wyddfa. Hoping they get a few hours sleep on the way but good to see them smiling. https://t.co/o4FtWKmVhu

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

Walk for Tom: 3 Peaks Edition is running a bit behind schedule due to road closures. But they are on their way up Scafell Pike now. They should have started at 5.15pm, making the most of the evening light but it was not to be. The head torches are on! https://t.co/o4FtWKnt72

[Debbie Walker @dtthewalker]

So the weather on Ben Nevis was not kind to our walkers this morning, but they are all safely down. So proud of each and every one of them. It’s going to be tough, but not as tough as a cancer diagnosis. Please donate if you can https://t.co/o4FtWKmVhu
