The Charity Commission has found that the family of national treasure Captain Sir Tom Moore, who raised £39 million for the NHS while in his 100th year, has profited from his fundraising
The family of the late Captain Sir Tom Moore has come under fire after a watchdog reported they had benefited financially from their links to The Captain Tom Foundation, a charity established in the wake of the pandemic. It was found that Sir Tom's daughter and her husband gained "significant" monetary benefits in connection with the charity, which was scrutinised by the Charity Commission.
Following its thorough investigation, the report issued by the watchdog criticises the involvement of Hannah and Colin Ingram-Moore. Speaking about the misconduct, David added: "What we have found is a pattern of behaviour and there was a consistent blurring of the lines between the private benefits of the family and the interest of the charity - and they simply weren't managed."
