Rejected petition Captain Tom Moore to be Knighted
We would request that Captain Tom Moore be knighted for his outstanding contribution to raising money for the NHS
More details
Captain Tom Moore originally wanted to raise £1,000 for NHS Charities Together by completing laps of his garden before his 100th birthday.
But he smashed his target after more than 650,000 people made donations to his fundraising page.
He has since raised over £13,000,000.00
