We would like to take this opportunity to wish a true hero Captain Tom Moore a very Happy 100th Birthday today.

Not only was he a war veteran, but he continues to serve and has recently raised over 30 million pounds for the NHS by completing 100 garden laps using his walker, he did it to raise money for the NHS in light of the Covid-19 pandemic and to say thank you to them for looking after him after a fall and a broken hip. His original hopes were to raise £1000 and as you can see he has smashed that.
He's quoted as saying that 'his legs may be tired, but his mind is racing', and he's hoping to be back very soon with other ways in which he can help people. His words of advice to us are 'Please always remember, tomorrow will be a good day'.
In light of his heroism, Captain Tom has been rewarded for his efforts by the Queen, not only did her majesty issue a personal message she also promoted him to Honorary Colonel of the Army Foundation College Harrogate. He also received his very own fly-past from the Royal Air Force.
Well done Sir, Happy Birthday and we salute you.
