Chris Thomson (@Tourdethomo) Charity Support Page.

@Tourdethomo on Instagram, Tiktok etc. Let's get serious (only for a minute): In May 2022 I received the worst phone call I hope to ever receive in my life. My mate, Hambo had taken his life. He was such an outgoing, friendly, driven person, it's the last thing I expected! This then triggered a spiral of mental health challenges for myself (and others) from anxiety to depression. The one thing that kept me going during this time? Running and adventure. So what happened: In order for me to survive in this world, I had to take some pretty drastic measures and change the course of my life otherwise I wasn't sure what might have happened. I quit my full-time job in London (along with making some other changes). So what now: I am now 100% focused on trying to become a full time runner/adventurer and charity campaigner (with a bit of comedic zest chucked in too of course). I hope to help others to realise that we only have One Life. No Reruns (tattooed on my arm in case I forget) so we have to find a way to be happy and follow our passions and dreams. For me this is running, adventure and travel so let's really give life a go. I aim to raise over £100,000 for a few different charities who have impacted my life or many of my family and friend’s lives. The charities I will be supporting are Movember, Mind, Dementia UK, British Heart Foundation, MNDA, My Name’5 Doddie Foundation and Maggie’s Cancer Care.
