Captain Tom 100 Challenge, 29 April 2021
Help us to raise funds for the Charlie Watkins Foundation that provides funding to projects that support young people suffering from mental illness and associated issues

Story

On 6 April 2020, Captain Tom Moore set out round his garden to thank our NHS heroes. One hundred laps later, he’d raised an incredible £38.9 million for the NHS Covid-19 appeal.

Friday 30 April would have been his 101st birthday and to honour him and his amazing achievements, the Captain Tom Foundation would love everyone, of all ages and abilities, to take part in the Captain Tom 100.

Our target is to find 100 people who will pledge to raise £100 each for the Charlie Watkins Foundation, which would give us a further £10,000 to support young people with serious mental health challenges who need our help the most.

Please join us in our challenge!
