Event Summary
Thame Rotary fundraising appeal: take on Thame & Villages 21 for 21 challenge
Rotary Club of Thame & District is renewing its appeal to the public to take on the fun and fundraising virtual real challenge: 21 for 21. The challenge can now be taken any time till the end of the Rotary year which ends on the 30th June. With the COVID-19 restrictions, Thame & District Rotary has been unable to organise the popular Thame Swimathon.
The teams can choose their favourite charity. Thame Rotary will then allocate 50% of the funds towards the preferred charity and 50% towards local charities supported by the club.
In 2021, the 21st year of the 21st Century, it is all about NUMBER 21…
The goal is to achieve a #21 milestone. So here comes the challenge:
- run or walk 21 miles - or 21k steps – or 21 laps in the garden – or 21,000 steps on your Fitbit - in your own flat or garden or around your town or village or out and about.
- with the warmer weather, people can also wash 21 cars or find 21 Easter eggs.
- when and how long? in your own time as one wishes the target to be. You can complete the challenge in as many days as you like. You can repeat the challenge as many times as you like.
What will we offer you?

When can I take my challenge?

Which charities can I support?
The funds raised will go towards Thame & District Rotary local charities of 2020-2021: Thomley, Red Kite Family Centre Thame-Chinnor and Thame Young Carers. Participants have also the option to allocate 50% of their fundraising effort to their preferred UK charity.

2. Decide what to do: 21 laps in your garden or 21k run or an easy walk in Thame, Chinnor or wherever in the world you may be.
