More infoA Leeds dad who watched his baby endure multiple life-changing operations is taking on an epic 26-mile challenge to in Peru to help others.
"It’s very hard seeing a small child go through big operations,” said Tom.
After going through the terrifying experience, Tom researched how cleft lips were treated around the world and came across the charity Smile Train.
The marketing manager decided that he had to help them after realising that some children don’t have the same access to care like his son did with the NHS.
I think it’s very difficult to imagine being in that position, which is why I felt compelled to support Smile Train.
