What We Do
Supporting health, nurturing young talent, and strengthening our community, all in Tom’s name.
What We Do
The Tom Youngs Foundation exists to carry forward Tom’s values of kindness, courage, and opportunity. Through fundraising events, health support, bursaries, and community partnerships, we aim to make a meaningful difference to people facing serious illness and to young individuals striving to reach their potential.
Our work reflects what mattered most to Tom: supporting others, creating chances, and building a community that cares.
Fundraising and Events
- Organise at least three signature fundraising events each year to reach our annual target of £10,000.
- Events will include sponsored walks, quiz nights, and a variety of community-led fundraising activities throughout the year.
Support for Health Causes
- Provide donations to hospices and medical charities focused on end of life care for those dealing with bowel and liver cancer and multiple sclerosis.

Partnerships and Outreach
