Antony and Halina Reid, together with a couple of their friends and four of Tom’s friends completed a 5k fun run in memory of Tom on Saturday. £1,503.00 was raised between them all. Here are some comments from those who took part:
“It was truly and honour and pleasure for Antony and I to be running with and alongside Tom’s and our friends on Saturday in his memory. It was truly an uplifting and memorable event which I know Tom will be very proud of! Also Tom’s friends have been and continue to be immensely special and supportive to us and their friendship and dedication has meant the world to us!”

“A massive congratulations to all of us who took part in the Leeds Big Fun Run 2011 in aid of CRY on 13th August! We took part in this event in memory of the wonderful Tom Reid, who sadly died in 2009 aged 19. I was part of a group that consisted of four of Tom’s friends, Tom’s Mum and Dad and two of their friends. An amazing day was had by all (even if it did involve running!), and running alongside Tom’s parents made the event even more memorable – their strength is an inspiration.”
