Captain Sir Thomas Moore (30 April 1920 – 2 February 2021), more popularly known as Captain Tom, was a British Army officer who raised money for charity in the run-up to his 100th birthday during the COVID-19 pandemic. He served in India and the Burma campaign during the Second World War, and later became an instructor in armoured warfare. After the war, he worked as managing director of a concrete company and was an avid motorcycle racer.

On 6 April 2020, at the age of 99, Moore began to walk one hundred lengths of his garden in aid of NHS Charities Together, with the goal of raising £1,000 by his 100th birthday. In the 24-day course of his fundraising, he made many media appearances and became a popular household name in the UK, earning a number of accolades and attracting over 1.5 million individual donations. In recognition of his efforts, he received the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Helen Rollason Award at the 2020 ceremony. He performed in a cover version of the song "You'll Never Walk Alone" sung by Michael Ball, with proceeds going to the same charity. The single topped the UK music charts, making him the oldest person to achieve a UK number one.

On the morning of Moore's hundredth birthday, the total raised by his walk passed £30 million, and by the time the campaign closed at the end of that day had increased to over £32.79 million (worth almost £39 million with expected tax rebates). His birthday was marked in a number of ways, including flypasts by the Royal Air Force and the British Army. He received over 150,000 cards, and was appointed as honorary colonel of the Army Foundation College. On 17 July 2020, he was personally knighted by the Queen at Windsor Castle. He died on 2 February 2021 at Bedford Hospital where he was taken after being treated for pneumonia and then testing positive for COVID-19.

Early life and family

Moore was born in Keighley, West Riding of Yorkshire, England, on 30 April 1920 and grew up in the town.[1] He was the son of Isabella (née Hird) and Wilson "Wilfred" Moore.[2] His father was from of a family of builders,[3][4] and his mother was a head teacher.[5] Moore was educated at Keighley Grammar School and started an apprenticeship in civil engineering.[6]

Military service

Moore as a second lieutenant in the British Army (c. 1941)

Moore was conscripted in the 8th Battalion, Duke of Wellington's Regiment (8 DWR) in May 1940, stationed at Weston Park in Otley, eight months after the beginning of the Second World War.[7][8][unreliable source?][9] He was selected for officer training later that year,[6] and attended an Officer Cadet Training Unit before being commissioned as a second lieutenant on 28 June 1941.[10]

On 22 October 1941, Moore became a member of the Royal Armoured Corps. This was because 8 DWR became an armoured unit designated as the 145th Regiment Royal Armoured Corps.[6][11] Later that year, he was transferred to the 9th Battalion (9 DWR) in India, which had converted to become the 146th Regiment Royal Armoured Corps.[12] While in India, he was tasked with setting up and running a training programme for army motorcyclists.[12] He was initially posted to Bombay[13] (now Mumbai) and subsequently to Calcutta (now Kolkata).[8]

He was promoted to war-substantive lieutenant on 1 October 1942 and to temporary captain on 11 October 1944.[14]

As part of the Fourteenth Army, the so-called "Forgotten Army", he served in Arakan in western Burma (now Myanmar) – where he survived dengue fever.[12] Moore returned to the UK in February 1945, to take a training course on the inner workings of the Churchill tanks, learning to become an instructor. He did not return to the regiment, remaining as an instructor and the Technical Adjutant of the Armoured Vehicle Fighting School in Bovington Camp, Dorset until the end of the War.[6][15][16] He was demobilised in 1946.[2]

For 64 years, he organised the 8th Battalion's annual reunion, the longest continual annual reunion in the Duke of Wellington Regiment.[8]

Career and hobbies

After leaving the army, Moore worked as a sales manager for a roofing materials company in Yorkshire.[17] He was later appointed general manager of Cawoods Concrete Products Ltd., manufacturing concrete pipes in March, Cambridgeshire, with a view to restoring it to profitability or closing it down, after its owners had failed to find a buyer.[18][19] Moore led a management buyout in 1983, with the assistance of local Member of Parliament Clement Freud, who also became an investor in the renamed March Concrete Products Ltd.[2][18][20][21] The company traded successfully for several years until market conditions and technical issues forced the investors to sell it to ARC in 1987.[18][20]

Moore raced motorcycles competitively – he purchased his first when he was 12[16] and wore the number 23.[22] He rode a Scott motorcycle, winning several trophies.[8] Moore was a member of the Keighley and District Photographic Association between 1934 and 1936, as his father had also been.[23]

He was a contestant in the Christmas Day 1983 edition of the BBC Television game show Blankety Blank.[24]

100th Birthday Walk

On 6 April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, and with his 100th birthday approaching, Moore began a fundraising campaign for NHS Charities Together, a group of charities supporting staff, volunteers and patients in the British National Health Service (NHS). He aimed to complete one hundred 25-metre (27-yard) lengths of his garden, ten lengths per day, with the help of a walking frame, branding the endeavour "Tom's 100th Birthday Walk for the NHS".[25][26][27]

The initial £1,000 goal having been realised on 10 April, the target was increased, first to £5,000,[28] and later to £500,000 as more people around the world became involved.[29] Contributions rose quickly after British media publicised the endeavour, beginning when Moore made a brief appearance by telephone, on Michael Ball's Sunday programme on BBC Radio 2 on 12 April.[30] Moore, who joined Twitter in the same month, used the site to express joy at the public's generosity in donating such a large amount of money.[31]

He achieved his target of one hundred lengths on the morning of 16 April, watched at a safe distance by a guard of honour from the 1st Battalion of the Yorkshire Regiment,[32] the regiment into which the DWR were merged in 2006.[33] He said he would not stop, and aimed to do a second hundred.[16]

On the morning of his birthday, he had raised £30 million.[34] The JustGiving page for his campaign closed at the end of that day; the final amount raised subsequently being stated there as £32,796,475 (plus another £6,173,663.31 expected in tax rebates under the Gift Aid scheme)[35] – a record for a JustGiving campaign,[36][37] beating the previous record of £5.2 million raised (partially posthumously) by Stephen Sutton.[38][39] More than 1.5 million individuals donated.[35]

Funds raised by Moore are being spent on such things as well-being packs for National Health Service staff facilitating rest and recuperation rooms, devices to enable hospital patients to keep in contact with family members, and community groups who support patients once discharged from hospitals.[16][40] Once his campaign ended, Moore encouraged people to continue to donate, directly to the NHS Charities Together's urgent appeal,[41] and subsequently via his own Captain Tom Foundation.[42]

On reaching £5 million, Moore explained his motivation:[43]

<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />

When we started off with this exercise we didn't anticipate we'd get anything near that sort of money. It's really amazing. All of them, from top to bottom, in the National Health Service, they deserve everything that we can possibly put in their place. They're all so brave. Because every morning or every night they're putting themselves into harm's way, and I think you've got to give them full marks for that effort. We're a little bit like having a war at the moment. But the doctors and the nurses, they're all on the front line, and all of us behind, we've got to supply them and keep them going with everything that they need, so that they can do their jobs even better than they're doing now.

Number one single

To mark Moore's 100th length, the singer Michael Ball sang "You'll Never Walk Alone" for him live on BBC Breakfast.[44] Within 24 hours, the performance was made into a digital single featuring the NHS Voices of Care Choir, and Moore's spoken words.[44] Released by Decca Records,[45] on 17 April, with all proceeds going to NHS Charities Together, the recording topped the United Kingdom's "The Official Big Top 40" chart. It sold almost 36,000 copies in its first 48 hours,[46] and was the "biggest trending song" as measured by the Official Charts Company.[45] On 24 April, it went straight to number 1 in the weekly "Official" UK Singles Chart, making Moore the oldest person to achieve that position and meaning that he was at number 1 on his 100th birthday,[47] and became a one-hit wonder.

Moore's bid to reach number 1 was boosted when his leading competitor, The Weeknd, who were the then-current act at number 1, used Twitter to ask people to support Moore and make him number 1 for his 100th birthday.[48][49] The Weeknd's song, "Blinding Lights", duly dropped to number 2.[47]

Recognition

On 16 April, after Moore's 100th length, a UK Government spokesman said "the Prime Minister will certainly be looking at ways to recognise Tom's heroic efforts."[50] Brigadier Andrew Jackson, Colonel of the Yorkshire Regiment, described Moore as "an absolute legend [from] an exceptional generation that are still an inspiration for our Yorkshire soldiers today."[51] Via video link, Moore was guest of honour at, and opened, the NHS Nightingale Hospital Yorkshire and the Humber, in Harrogate, on 21 April.[51][52]

On 21 April, he was awarded a Knighthood by the Principality of Sealand.[53]

On 23 April, he was given a Pride of Britain award in recognition of his efforts, after "thousands of nominations" were received.[54][55] He was appointed the first Honorary Colonel of the Army Foundation College in Harrogate, Yorkshire, a training centre for soldiers under 18, on his 100th birthday.[56][57] When acting in that capacity, he was addressed as "Colonel Tom".[58] He also received the Yorkshire Regiment Medal for his "outstanding contribution to our military effectiveness and military reputation".[59] He made his first visit to the college on 10 September, when he was Chief Inspecting Officer at their annual graduation parade.[60]

On his 100th birthday, he was also named a "Point of Light" by the Prime Minister.[61] In early May, he was awarded a gold Blue Peter badge, the highest accolade issued by the BBC Television children's programme.[62] Keighley Town Council stated that they would grant Moore the Freedom of Keighley.[63][64] On 12 May, he was granted the Freedom of the City of London, via a video call.[65]

By 20 April, more than 800,000 people had signed a petition calling for Moore to be knighted.[66] Late on 19 May, it was announced that he was to be made a Knight Bachelor following a special nomination by the Prime Minister.[67][68] The knighthood is part of the 2020 Special Honours,[69] and was conferred on 20 May.[70][71] The investiture, by Elizabeth II, took place outdoors, in the quadrangle at Windsor Castle, on 17 July; Moore was the only person honoured at the ceremony, and it was the Queen's first official engagement in person since the start of the COVID-19 lockdown.[72] She used the sword that had belonged to her father George VI.[72] On 7 September, Sir Gary Hickinbottom, the Knight Principal of the Imperial Society of Knights Bachelor presented the Knight Bachelor's Certificate (the official documentation of a Knight Bachelor) to Moore at his home, and gave him the ISKB's official Neck Tie. At the same ceremony, Robert Pooley, the CEO of Pooley Sword, presented him with a Knight Bachelor's Sword.[73]

Cranfield University, near Moore's home in Bedfordshire, awarded him an Honorary Doctorate of Science. It was presented to him by Baroness Young, Chancellor of the university, and Sir Peter Gregson, Vice-Chancellor, in a video call.[74] He was awarded the Honorary degree of Doctor of the University (D.Univ) by the University of Bradford as part of their 2020 Graduation Ceremonies.[75] In July, Moore became the first member and captain of the Football Association and England National Football Team's Lionhearts squad. This honour was presented by former England captain David Beckham.[76][77]

Media

A number of artists painted portraits of Moore; some said they would gift the paintings to him,[78] or sell them to raise more funds.[79] Others depicted him in murals, including examples in Cambourne,[80] Tamworth,[81] and Thetford.[82] On 14 August, an official portrait painted by Alexander Chamberlin was unveiled. It is in the collection of the National Army Museum.[83]

Moore gave over 150 media interviews.[12] On 6 May, BBC One changed its advertised schedule to screen a 30-minute BBC News Special, Captain Tom: We Salute You, presented by Michael Ball.[30] During the programme, Ball visited Moore at his home, and at the end of the programme the pair duetted, a cappella, the first verse of their hit single.[30] Another UK television channel, ITV, screened a 30-minute documentary, Captain Tom's War, on 8 May, in which Moore reminisced about his military career,[12][84] followed by the hour-long The Life & Times of Captain Sir Tom on 13 August.[85] He was the guest on an episode of Piers Morgan's Life Stories on 13 September.[9][86]

In November 2020, British GQ magazine named Moore its "Inspiration of the Year" as part of its Men of the Year edition. Moore also appeared on the front cover of the magazine, making him the oldest cover star in the magazine's history.[87][88]

Guinness World Records

Moore held two Guinness World Records: as the fundraiser raising the greatest amount of money in an individual charity walk, and as the oldest person to have a number-one single on the UK charts.[89]

100th birthday

Over a week before Moore's 100th birthday, so many cards had been sent to him that Royal Mail had had to introduce dedicated sorting facilities and around 20 volunteers were recruited to open and display them, at the local Bedford School.[90][91] By his birthday, over 150,000 cards had been received.[92]

Royal Mail announced that all stamped post between 26 April and 1 May would be postmarked "Happy 100th Birthday Captain Thomas Moore NHS fundraising hero 30th April 2020". Royal Mail also celebrated his birthday by painting a postbox, near his home, the shade of blue used by the NHS, with a golden balloon and inscription on the side.[93]

On the morning of his birthday, a Hawker Hurricane and a Spitfire from the Royal Air Force's Battle of Britain Memorial Flight performed a flypast over Moore's house.[92] In the afternoon, a second flypast featured two Army Air Corps helicopters, a Wildcat and an Apache.[94][95]

Michael Ball appeared live on BBC Breakfast to sing "Happy Birthday to You" to Moore.[92] Birthday congratulations were also made by Boris Johnson, Harry Kane, and Prince Charles.[96] Moore also took a video call from the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres.[97]

Instead of the standard 100th birthday message from Queen Elizabeth II, he received a personalised card, presented in person by the Lord Lieutenant of Bedfordshire, Helen Nellis.[98]

Namesakes

Keighley Bus Company named one of its Optare Versa buses Captain Tom Moore on 20 April, and reprogrammed the electronic displays to show a "Thank You Captain Tom" message intermittently in between the vehicle's route and destination. A plaque inside the bus gives further information of Moore's life and fundraising.[99] Other buses in the town, and across parent company Transdev Blazefield, displayed an intermittent "Thank You NHS" message. Alex Hornby, chief executive of Transdev Blazefield, described the vehicle as the "pride of the fleet" in dedication to Moore, thanking him for his fundraising efforts.[100] On 25 April, bus company Stagecoach East, which runs services in Bedford where Moore lived, named one of its Alexander Dennis Enviro400 MMC double-decker buses Captain Tom Moore.[101]

Personal life

Moore first married in 1949 to a woman he later referred to as "Billie".[2] The couple divorced.[112] In January 1968, he married Pamela, fifteen years his junior.[8][113] They had two daughters, Lucy[114] and Hannah.[113] When Moore was working at Cawoods and then March Concrete, the family lived in Welney in Norfolk.[21] The couple retired to the Costa del Sol, Spain, but returned when Pamela developed a form of dementia. She spent her last years in a nursing home, where Moore would visit her every day.[85] She died in 2006.[25] Moore lived with Hannah, her husband, and two grandchildren, in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire, from 2008 until his death.[16] He also had two other grandchildren.[8]

In 2018, he received treatment from the NHS, for a broken hip, broken rib, punctured lung and other serious injuries, following a fall.[8][9][25][26][92][115][116] He was still recovering from these injuries when he started his fund-raising walk.[9] The same year, he was also treated for skin cancer.[8] In addition, Moore had a hip replacement and two knee replacements.[117] His great-nephew is a paediatric junior doctor at East Surrey Hospital.[117]

In December 2020, Moore and his family took a holiday to Barbados after British Airways paid for his flight.[118][119]

Death and tributes

Moore was admitted to Bedford Hospital on 12 January. He was diagnosed with pneumonia and treated. Ten days later he was discharged to his home in Marston Moretaine. Both before and during his stay in hospital, Moore was tested regularly for COVID-19. On the day of his discharge, 22 January, he first tested positive for COVID-19. He remained at home for the following nine days while receiving care and treatment. Having difficulty in breathing, Moore was re-admitted to Bedford Hospital on 31 January with COVID-19 and pneumonia.[118][120] He died on 2 February, aged 100.[121]

Many public figures, including MPs, sportsmen and celebrities paid tribute to Moore through their social media channels.[122][123][124] The NHS Twitter account issued a statement saying "Thanks for everything, Sir Tom ♥".[125]

Buckingham Palace issued a statement saying "The Queen is sending a private message of condolence to the family of Captain Sir Tom Moore. Her Majesty very much enjoyed meeting Captain Sir Tom and his family at Windsor last year. Her thoughts and those of the Royal Family are with them".[126]

Prime Minister Boris Johnson called Moore "a hero in the truest sense of the word" and praised him for both his military service and fundraising efforts. Johnson also announced that the flags above 10 and 11 Downing Street would be flown at half-mast as a sign of respect.[127] Johnson also appealed to the country to join the national clap for Moore at 6 pm on 3 February 2021.[128][129]

Both Houses of Parliament observed a one-minute silence in honour of Moore on 3 February.[130][131] The BBC News Special programme, Captain Tom: We Salute You, was re-broadcast on BBC One the same evening.[132]

A change.org petition calling for Moore to receive a state funeral received almost 200,000 signatures within the first two days of being launched.[133]

Radio DJ Amanda Holden announced during the 3 February edition of the Heart Breakfast radio show that she was launching a campaign calling for an official memorial statue of Moore to be erected.[134] Holden's campaign has received support from the Daily Mail,[135] Health Secretary Matt Hancock,[136] and members of Moore's family.[137] In a debate on Good Morning Britain on 4 February, TV presenter Nick Knowles suggested that Moore's statue should be placed permanently on the fourth plinth of Trafalgar Square,[138] whereas Carol Vorderman suggested Moore should have a memorial stone in Westminster Abbey.[139]

On 4 February Barbados' Prime Minister, Mia Mottley, who had met with Moore during his visit to Barbados issued a statement of condolences, on behalf of herself and her nation, after learning of his death.[140]

Criticism

Trainee priest Jarel Robinson-Brown raised concerns, via Twitter, that the media fervour and nationalist rhetoric surrounding Tom Moore was a form of white supremacist rhetoric. He swiftly deleted his comment, however, and offered "an unreserved apology" and later deleted his Twitter account. In response to the tweet, his employers, the Diocese of London, ordered an investigation, saying his comments were "unacceptable, insensitive, and ill-judged". Almost 25,000 people signed an online petition calling on the church to remove Robinson-Brown from his post.[141]

In popular culture

An example of graffiti art, as a tribute to Moore, by local artist Rachel List in Pontefract in June 2020

A mural was created, in honour of Moore, in Pontefract, West Yorkshire in April 2020.[142] Moore was among a number of subjects for graffiti art created by Pontefract artist Rachel List.[143] On 30 April 2020 a 12-foot-high (3.7-metre) mural, by newsagent and artist Paul Cable, on the wall of a popular restaurant in Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, was unveiled as a tribute to Moore on his 100th birthday.[144]

In September 2020, it was announced that a biopic of Moore's life was being produced by Fred Films and Powder Keg Pictures. Upon hearing the announcement, Moore commented: "I don’t know of any 100-year-old actors, but I’m sure Michael Caine or Anthony Hopkins could do a wonderful job if they were prepared to age up!". The film is being produced and written by Nick Moorcroft and Meg Leonard.[145][146]

Moore's autobiography, Tomorrow Will Be a Good Day (with a ghost-writer, Wendy Holden),[147] was published by Penguin Books on 17 September 2020.[148][149][150] An audiobook edition is read by Derek Jacobi.[150] A version of the book for children, One Hundred Steps, published by Puffin Books, will be available from 1 October 2021.[149][151]

A depiction of Moore featured in the 2020–21 New Year's Eve fireworks display in London.[152][153]
