Captain Sir Tom Moore united the Nation and gave hope when it was needed most. He believed in the fundamental kindness of humans and on 6 April 2020 started fundraising for charity by walking 100 laps of his garden to celebrate his 100th birthday.
One year later his legacy lives on with the Captain Tom 100 Challenge. The challenge will take place between Friday 30 April until Monday 3 May, to celebrate what would have been his 101st birthday.
Dogs for Good is involved and we’d love you to join people across the country to take on the challenge and raise funds for us so we can train more of our life changing dogs.
The challenge can be anything that is done 100 times (Captain Tom’s proudest number) and the options are limitless!
