Britain's World War Two record-fundraising veteran Captain Tom Moore is releasing an autobiography, amid plans for yet more charity work
MARSTON MORETAINE, England - He turned 100, raised nearly 40 million pounds for Britain’s health service and was knighted by the queen. But for Captain Tom Moore, the achievements of 2020 aren’t over: he has written an autobiography and plans more charity work.
“I hope I can go on for a long time, because I’ve got to hang on a bit until this book gets published probably,” Moore, who now has the title “Sir”, told Reuters. Its title sums up Moore’s optimism, which struck a chord at a time when deaths from COVID-19 were mounting and Britain, like most other countries, went into strict lockdown to contain the disease.
His daughter, Hannah Ingram-Moore, is helping him launch the Captain Tom Foundation, which aims to raise money to give to charities tackling issues including loneliness, bereavement, education and equality.
