Uh oh. Amid the longstanding inquiry into Captain Sir Tom Moore’s family, one rather damning conclusion has so far been reached. It has been revealed today that Captain Tom’s daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore and her husband have been disqualified from being charity trustees as part of an ongoing investigation by the Charity Commission. Talk about a fall from grace…
Interest in the Captain Tom Foundation – set up in 2020 after the army veteran fundraised £38.9 million for the NHS during lockdown – piqued after concerns arose about the management of the charity and its independence from the ex-soldier’s family. Sir Tom Moore passed away in February 2021, shortly after his 100th birthday and six months later, his daughter was made CEO of the charity. She held her position until April 2022 while her husband had remained one of the Foundation’s trustees. The charity stopped taking money from donors last summer and the family’s lawyer has hinted it could shut down entirely.
