Kate Middleton, Prince William and other royals publicly mark Captain Tom Moore's 100th birthday
Thursday was a very special day for Captain Tom Moore, the war veteran who has raised over £31million for NHS Charities Together. Not only did he celebrate his 100th birthday, but he was also promoted to Honorary Colonel by the Queen.
Captain Tom aimed to raise £1000 for the NHS by walking 100 laps of his garden in his Bedfordshire home ahead of his birthday. On the morning of his special day, the total had reached a whopping £30million and is still climbing hours before the donations page closes at midnight.
In honour of his incredible achievement and reaching a huge personal milestone, members of the royal family have been sending Captain Tom their birthday wishes.
