Tom Bland

I divide my time as equitably as possible between my family (I have a fantastic wife, three amazing pre-school kids and a border collie mutt), my work as a town planner with a keen interest in urban and sustainable environmental planning and running, swimming and biking my way around the place for fun and competition.

In June 2012, I will embark on potentially the toughest physical and mental challenge of my young life - to run the 1,014km South West Coast Path (with its 35,000m of ascent) in under two weeks to raise awareness of mental health issues and to raise funds for Mind - The Mental Health Charity. You can read all about that here and if your motivated to, you can donate here.
