Bath Rugby Walk Challenge 2021

Bath’s only rugby walk is back!

This event, in aid of Bath Rugby Foundation & Dorothy House, will look a little different in 2021 as walkers take their game to the next level.

Between 6 Feb – 20 March, participants will choose their own rugby-themed distance walk. But, to add some bonus points, a weekly fun or sporting blitz challenge will be laid down by some of Bath Rugby’s famous faces and some of our own charity stars.

Choose your virtual route distance to complete over this six-week period, if you want to walk to The Rec, to the Principality Stadium (57 miles), to Twickenham (107 miles), or even Murrayfield (387 miles!) then it’s totally up to you.

If that isn’t enough encouragement, both charities will be spicing things up by introducing bonus points and a sporting blitz challenge laid down by some of Bath Rugby’s famous faces and Dorothy House’s own stars. There will be brilliant prizes for top fundraisers and individual blitz winners!

Hosting the event virtually this year ensures that you can still get outside, get fundraising, enjoy the rugby and support two of Bath’s most loved charities!

The Bath Rugby Walk Challenge is FREE – and when you sign up, you’ll be sent an exclusive free T-shirt too! Wear your event T-shirt with pride as you take on your walk and take part in the weekly challenges.

All we ask is that you raise as much money as you can for our two incredible charities so that they can continue to provide vital services throughout our community.

Please note that only Adult and Child Tickets (12-16) are eligible for a free t-shirt. Children under 12 will receive a special thank you after the event closes and will not be eligible for a free a t-shirt.

Why it means so much

Last year we learned so much about the power of community and how, when we join together, we can do great things! This is the heart behind Bath Rugby Foundation and Dorothy House joining together for this event.

We believe no one should be limited by their postcode because everyone deserves an equal opportunity in life. Whether it’s a young person starting out on their journey or someone nearing the end of their life, by taking part in the Rugby Walk you are part of building a stronger community that supports the most vulnerable in our society.

Whether you’ve been personally touched by the work of either charity, or you just fancy a challenge in 2021 we guarantee that your decision to take part and fundraise will change someone’s life for the better!

Thanks from all of us for taking part!
