Would you like to set yourself a challenge and raise funds for a good cause?

Join the Captain Tom 100 challenge and become a fundraiser for Step One!

We’re inviting you, your family and friends to take part in Captain Tom 100 from Friday 30 April to Bank Holiday Monday 3 May 2021 to celebrate Captain Sir Tom Moore’s amazing achievements and raise vital funds for Step One Charity.

Friday 30 April would have been Captain Sir Tom’s 101st birthday and is the one-year anniversary of the extraordinary celebrations that followed the conclusion of his fundraising walk that raised an extraordinary £38.9 million for the NHS.

Celebrate his life
Following the outpouring of heartfelt messages since Captain Sir Tom’s death on 2 February this year, his family pledged to celebrate his life with an event that everyone around the world could get involved in to celebrate his generosity, hope and sense of fun – the Captain Tom 100.

How does it work?
All you need to do is dream up your Captain Tom 100 – an activity of your choice based around the numbers 100 – and do it anytime and anywhere from Friday 30 April through to Bank Holiday Monday 3 May. Your 100 could be walking 100 steps or running 100 metres, scoring 100 goals, baking 100 cakes, climbing 100 stairs, hopping 100 laps of the garden, building 100 sandcastles, writing a 100-word poem, flipping 100 pancakes – you name it.

Fundraise or donate
Once you’ve decided what you’re doing, you can fundraise or donate to Step One Charity and share your 100 on social media, using #CaptainTom100. Don’t forget to tag Step One Charity in your 100 challenges too!
