A woman who helped launch Captain Sir Tom Moore’s charity appeal has said she was told she had ‘no right’ to talk about the role she played.
Daisy Souter, 31, a freelance public relations worker, said she helped to set up the original campaign but was later silenced by Captain Tom’s daughter, Hannah Ingram-Moore.Captain Tom raised more than £38m for NHS charities in 2020 by walking up and down the garden of his Bedfordshire home. He died in February 2021.In a post on LinkedIn, Ms Souter said she was approached by the family to write an initial press release, which began the story - which she sent to media contacts.
"I had been contacted by a national PR awards organiser and was told they would like to put me forward for five awards. I told the family immediately and the family told me to go for it and would be on my table cheering me on."A week later I was told by Hannah Ingram Moore that I had no right to talk about my work/involvement with the PR, even though a week before they said I should go for the PR awards for launching that first news story.
