On Sunday 16 October Tom Mitchell is taking part in the Amsterdam Marathon in aid of Barnardo’s.

This is Tom’s tenth marathon and the third time he has taken part in this event. He will be participating with 15,000 other runners from more than 70 countries starting and finishing at the Olympic Stadium.

Tom is running to raise money for Barnardo's which is one of the UKs leading childrens charities, working directly with over 100,000 children, young people and their families every year. The money that Tom raises will be used towards the many vital projects Barnardo’s run across the UK.

If you are interested in donating and learning more about Barnardo’s please see Toms fundraising page at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/TomMitchell1975
