Congratulations Colonel Tom on your well deserved knighthood.
Capturing the hearts of the nation at such a difficult time, raising a staggering amount (over £32 million) for charity, you are an inspiration to us all.
Thank you.
Captain Tom Moore is to be knighted for his fundraising efforts after a special nomination from the prime minister.
