Make a Difference: NorthamptonAvailable for over a year
Tony Hopkin has broken three triathlon-related world records in the past two years. An achievement made even more remarkable when you learn he only took up the sport a couple of years before. As well as completing these marathon challenges, he’s also raised thousands of pounds for a SEN charity. Tony, who is one of the finalists for this year’s BBC Radio Northamptonshire Make A Difference Awards, has been sharing his story with Suki Somal. (Photo credit: Tony Hopkin)
