What’s Your 100?
We’re inviting everyone to take part in an exciting community event called the 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 Genesis Trust Bath.
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 incredible £38.9 million for the NHS.
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.
All you need to do is dream up your Captain Tom 100 – an activity of your choice based around the number 100. You can 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 in the garden, building 100 sandcastles, writing a 100-word poem, flipping 100 pancakes, cycling 100k indoors or on real roads. Anything at all, inside or outside. It’s for all ages and stages. It’s your chance to do it your way!
Once you’ve decided what you’re doing, you can fundraise or donate to Genesis Trust. You can use Just Giving or Virgin Money Giving to set up a fundraising page.

We hope you’ll join the thousands of people around the world taking part in Captain Tom 100 and spread his message of hope while raising much-needed funds to support homeless, vulnerable and disadvantaged people in Bath.
