Fond Farewell

Fond memories

IN MEMORY OF

CAPTAIN SIR TOM MOORE

WORDS BY Hannah Ingram-Moore

My Father and our family have been at the centre of a global fundraising phenomenon that was achieved in response to the coronavirus pandemic in April 2020. A simple gesture of sponsoring my Father to walk laps of the garden led to £38.9 million being raised for the NHS, (including gift aid) with donations from over 163 countries.

After thousands of media appearances and requests by supporters to continue spreading hope, we launched the Captain Tom 100 campaign, in memory of my Father and his initial walk. The campaign attracted attention from 105 countries, had an overall reach of 12.8 billion and raised at least £1.4 million for charities, including The Captain Tom Foundation.

The Captain Tom Foundation was set up in May 2020 to ensure my Fathers message of hope becomes a lasting legacy. It’s ambition is to connect generations, by inspiring hope where it’s needed most.”!
