Tom was nominated by Bucks Vision staff who had received such positive feedback from their members regarding the Visually Impaired Tennis Sessions Tom has set up at Halton Tennis Centre, near Aylesbury. The sessions have allowed Bucks Vision members to get out, socialise and do some exercise in a friendly and structured environment. Tom was presented with the certificate by the Mayoress of Aylesbury at an Awards Ceremony in the Town Hall on Friday 10th May. Tom said afterwards 'I feel a bit of a fraud taking all the glory because it's very much a team effort and in particular, our Head Disability Coach - Alex Barnes, really makes the sessions come alive - I just do all the behind the scenes work. It's lovely though to receive some formal recognition for all the effort'
Tom is also in the process of setting up VI tennis sessions in Milton Keynes, so if you are interested in attending either of the sessions at Halton or the Woughton Leisure Centre in Milton Keynes, please contact Tom on 07729 561884.
