Former The Wanted star Tom Parker has been announced as the new patron for Kent charity ellenor, which provides hospice care for seriously ill people of all ages.

Parker, who recently appeared on ITV's All Star Mr & Mrs and raised £5k for the charity, commented 'I feel honoured to be a patron of ellenor. I can think of nothing more worthwhile than supporting such a great local charity that provides the best possible care and support to families facing terminal illness in Kent'.
