Captain Tom Moores 100th birthday how he inspired the nation
He was only trying to do his bit, but instead Captain Tom became a national hero. The WWII veteral set out to walk around his garden 100 times to raise 1, 000 for charity and achieved his aim 30, 000 times over. I think it s an absolutely fantastic sum of money, you would never imagine sort of money, he said. It s unbelievable that people would be so kind to give that sort of money to the National Health Service. And maybe I was responsible for starting it, but not deliberately. As his daughter Hanna
