Story
At the end of last year, during the second National Lockdown, The Captain Tom Foundation launched Walk with Captain Tom. Its mission is to get as many people as possible walking and talking, spreading hope and easing loneliness. Captain Sir Tom united the nation walking laps of his garden and became the face of hope in dark times. Carrying on his journey, he and his family hope the Walk with Captain Tom initiative will unite the nation.The initiative encourages those of all ages, geographies and persuasion to take action. People can walk to keep their mind happy, walk and give someone a call. Walk to their shielding friends house and drop off a little something on the doorstep, or just talk at a distance of course.The coronavirus pandemic continues to cause so much uncertainty and strain, particularly for those facing loneliness, bereavement and mental health issues, and we want to help as much as we can. During February, we want to do our bit to help The Captain Tom Foundation raise vital funds for incredible causes whilst continuing to spread hope that "tomorrow will be a good day", letting his memory shine on. We will be walking 100 miles collectively, safely, distanced and adhering to Government Guidelines, to raise funds for The Captain Tom Foundation and in memory of our Hero! 100 miles for 100 laps! Any donation will be greatly appreciated and we thank you all for your support! Stay safe and keep well.
