Tom Wilson Memorial Fund

Tom Wilson Memorial Fund


ClubBuzz page

Tom 'Willow' Wilson, aged 22, died on the 9th of December 2015, after a first team training ground accident at our club. He suffered a traumatic subarachnoid brain haemorrhage after a blow to the head by a stick. The Willows teams are named in his memory.

As the family considered organ donation they were informed he signed up as a fresher at Nottingham Trent University, allowing Tom selflessly to donate his organs and tissue to help save and transform the lives of up to 50 people. His teammates who performed CPR helped save Tom’s organs enabling him to give the ultimate gift of life.

The Tom Wilson Memorial Fund was set up to raise money for various donor organisations, concussion research and England Hockey related sporting charities. All money raised will go to the fund, any donation would be greatly appreciated.
