From the article:

Young Tom proves that he’s a runner and a Gunner

Emirates Stadium hosted its second ever fun-run for Arsenal’s Charity of the Season, Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity. The Be a Gunner Be a Runner event raised over £41,000 for one of the world’s leading children’s hospitals. 10 year old Tom Phillips from Highbury, saw off tough competition from over 50 other children on Saturday to win the kids’ race and completed the two laps of Emirates Stadium in just six minutes.

Harry Potter star Tom Felton who plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films together with football trickster Paul ‘Woody’ Wood presented Tom with his trophy.

Tom said: “It was brilliant to run and raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital. I raised £113 and I’m an Arsenal fan so that’s why I ran.”

Harry Potter star Tom Felton said: “Be a Gunner Be a Runner was a fantastic day out and raised an incredible amount of money to help the thousands of very sick young patients at Great Ormond Street Hospital.”

The Be a Gunner Be a Runner event was part of Arsenal’s season-long ‘Be a Gooner. Be a Giver.’ campaign. Through this, the Club aims to raise £500,000 to fund a new Arsenal Lung Function Unit for children who have difficulty breathing or sleeping. These problems can mean that children may not grow properly and the Lung Function Unit is vitally important in their treatment.

Thanks guys!

We would like everybody to vote on which logo you think best represents the FA at this event. The winner will receive a free shirt with their logo. Go here to view the submissions and cast your vote!

Thanks to @snatalia and @HandsOfTime, we now have transcript of the portions (notice I did not say ‘bits’ this time! =) of Jason Isaac’s BBC radio 2 interview where he very sweetly mentions Tom. The full interview was posted to Snitchseeker yesterday and can be heard here.

Dermot (Interviewer) – The young actors, it must be a joy watching them grow up?

Jason – Yeah, they’ve all turned out – I know you would say this, but actually it is true of Daniel, Rupert, Emma and Tom, who plays my son and I’ve had the most contact with. They’ve all turned out to be really fine, grounded, humble young people, which is pretty extraordinary considering they’re the most famous young people on the planet – can’t call them kids any more – and extremely wealthy. I think it’s partly because they have been inside this community; they’ve not been treated special or different…

Dermot – He’s a good footballer as well, Tom. He was at Soccer Aid last year, and I’m doing it…

Jason – Are you? I bottled out!

Dermot – … but he came on last year as right wing. He got this wonderful, kind of chorus of theatrical boos.

Jason – Except you should know, he gets the biggest mailbag from young women. He’s an incredible heartthrob, and deserves it.

Dermot – Yeah, well he just sort of smiled and waved.

Jason – Yes he’s very charming. All of them are unfailingly polite…

Thanks again to Snitchseeker and to @snatalia and @HandsOfTime for their transcription services! =)

Thanks to @r_p_f and Megan, we have this new photo of Tom posing with fans at the “Be a Gunner. Be a Runner.” charity event which took place earlier today to raise money for the Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Thanks guys!

It was almost a year ago when Feltbeats.com first announced that Tom Felton had joined Twitter, and Tom posted his first Tweet ever:

TomFelton: writing songs in my pyjamas!

Since then, we’ve all watched as he hit 50,000 followers only a month after signing up, and 200,000 followers last October.

His meteoric rise to Twitterfame has also been marked by many awards, achievements and special moments, such as when he won the Mashable.com award for “Best Actor/Actress to Follow on Twitter,” when he was ranked #86 on the “Most Influential” list of celebrity Twitterers, when Tom tweeted to the whole LeakyCon2009 convention, when self.com asked Tom our Twitter questions during their interview, when Tom was voted Best Harry Potter Twitterer in the 2009 “Leaky” awards (with 53% of the vote!), or when we teamed up with Tom Fletcher fans to get both Toms in the top three of the Mr. Twitter Universe competition.

To commemorate the event, Feltbeats Admin @bserlori (and resident cake decorator) has made Tom this nice congratulatory design. Very sweet, Lori! (And by sweet, I mean that literally; I’m getting a sugar high from just looking at the picture!)

Thanks Lori, and congratulations Tom – from all of your fans!

If you follow Tom Felton on Twitter, you probably saw him Tweet about the Great Ormond Street Hospital charity event which occurs tomorrow. Feltbeats.com has confirmed with Tom today that he is indeed attending this event, and wants to encourage everyone to go down to the Emirates Stadium and run 10 laps for charity! You can register here.

According to the Web site, the Great Ormond Street Hospital is teaming up with the Arsenal football team in the hopes of raising £500,000 for the children at the hospital. The money will be used to build a new lung function unit for children who have difficulty breathing or sleeping.
