Congratulations Capt. Tom Moore 09:48 - Apr 14 with 4530 viewsArnieM

This 99yr old Army Veteran has now raised IN EXCESS of £1.1m for the NHS ( his goal was to raise just a £1k !!) by walking 10 laps a day round his garden on his frame , hoping to reach 100 laps by the time he reaches his 100th Birthday at the end of the month. He has achieved this in just one week!

This man epitomises everything that is great about this Country 🇬🇧 . Well done Sir 👍🌈🌈

Anyone wanting To contribute go to Just giving Tom Moore 👍

He is a real hero. Giving out gongs to footballers, cricketers, actors, famous people, politicians etc? I wouldn’t. They should be for people that do exceptional things like him.

Not far away from £1.9m now. Hopefully will pass the £2m mark by the end of the afternoon.

Well who’d have thought it possible. Capt. Town is still doing 10 laps a day bless him and the donations towards him and the 🌈NHS🌈 now stands at over £7.2m


I REALLY hope this “ young” man is bestowed a great honour by The Oueen, because he sure as hell deserves it.

The money is going towards Sleep pods for NHS ITU staff s9 they can get some rest in ITU during their 12 hour shifts. Respite places for their families, Well being packs for NHS staff involved ( don’t know what’s in this btw), Communication links for ( I think), affected patients and their families, and NHS staff and their families.

April 30th is Capt. Tom ‘s 100 Birthday. Wishing him a very happy Birthday , and “ thank you “ for walking this distance every day. I can think of fair few people a lot, lot younger than this that could not do this amount of exercise, so for a centurion to do this is remarkable.

Good on yer Sir. 🌈 NHS 🌈👍

Just had to edit his birthday date . Sorry guys it’s actually on the 30th not tomorrow as I initially stated .

I was listening in the shower this morning when it passed £5m. Incredible stuff. Surprised your thread hasn't had more views/posts. Such a great story when there are so few about at the moment.

How about that the health service should be funded by taxation and that £12 million is a small drop in the budget, indeed it's around one 30th of a big red bus?

Tom Moore has done a very good thing and I'm glad it's inspired people but the news coverage is very much of the 'bread and circuses variety'.

Sure. But no one on here is congratulating the news or even mentioning their coverage in a positive light.

Let's just enjoy the fact that Tom and the public have come together surely?
