Riders for Health
Tom singing in the fast lane...
Tom was at Newcastle Marriott Hotel, Gosforth Park last night singing for some stars of the MotoGP world.
Tom was singing during dinner at the inaugural Riders for Health Ball. Riders for Health manage and maintain vehicles for health-focussed partners in sub-Saharan Africa. Their expertise in transport management enables health workers to deliver vital health care to rural communities. The aim of last night's Ball was to raise enough money to finance another bike, similar to the one you see Tom with above.
Randy Mamola and Niall Mackenzie were hosting, although the event itself was organised by Dale Robinson and Chris Berriman. Neil Hodgson, and Bradley Smith, Taylor Mackenzie and Tarran Mackenzie were all there. If you know your racing these are names you will be familiar with!
Dale has kindly been in touch to say "Tom doesn't just thoroughly entertain his guests - he involves them. Tom absolutely wowed the guests at our recent ball at the Marriott Gosforth Park. The audience enjoyed the performance setting the scene and lifting the convivial mood for the rest of the evenings charity fundraising activities. Well done Tom you are a unique but very useful act, it is very easy to recommend you as an entertainer to anyone wishing to have an audience lifted, entertained and involved."
Tom's next public gig is at Marabini's in Morpeth on Saturday 8th June.
Tom to perform for Motorcycle Racing Legends
