Darts fundraiser hits £100,000 milestone

Tom 'Snoopy Wilson has raised over £100,000 for Prostate Cancer UK over the past eight years.

A darts player has raised £100,000 for Prostate Cancer UK in eight years.

After a conversation with his grandmother, Tom 'Snoopy' Wilson set himself an initial goal of raising £10,000 for the charity.

Two of his family members were diagnosed with the disease which he said spurred him on to continue raising money.

Mr Wilson has raised the money through darts tournaments and raffles and his efforts have been supported by 16-times World Champion, Phil 'The Power' Taylor.

Mr Wilson told the BBC he was "really keen to do something positive with his life" despite the challenges that come with his autism diagnosis.

Now he has hit this milestone he wants to keep raising money through online auctions and other fundraising events.
