Coronavirus and the Public Spirit Part 2

A giant sign celebrating Captain Sir Tom Moore and his fundraising efforts will be installed in the centre of his hometown. The 100-year-old war veteran raised more than £32m for NHS charities by completing 100 laps of his garden. Plans for the sign in Keighley – his birthplace – have been approved by Bradford Council who said it would “benefit community morale”. Capt Sir Tom was knighted in May for his fundraising efforts. His sponsored walks up and down his Bedfordshire garden in the run up to his 100th birthday in April captured the nation’s imagination and raised more than £32m.
