A message from Tom: "I have very kindly been offered lots of lovely items, such as walkers, chairs and other items. I have everything I need, so instead of giving to me, perhaps you could donate these generous offers to a local care home. Thank you”
Thank you @RoyalFamily.
I have been overwhelmed by the many honours I have received over the past weeks, but there is simply nothing that can compare to this, I am overwhelmed with pride and joy.

8 MILLION POUNDS!!!
I’m speechless.....
This amount of money will help the #NHS beyond what we ever thought was imaginable.
Thank you to everyone that’s helped me get there.
#walkwithtom#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
1/2 A message from Tom; 'I am absolutely overwhelmed. Never for one moment could I have imagined I would be awarded with such a great honour. I’d like to thank Her Majesty The Queen, the Prime Minister and the Great British public. I will remain at your service…
I’m Captain Tom Moore, war veteran, 99 years of age (soon to be 100) and I’m walking for the NHS to raise money for our heroes.

“Someone will have to make extra cake and sandwiches, and it won’t be me.”
Today we celebrate the life of our hero. We will be following Captain Tom’s wishes by enjoying a cup of tea and a slice of Victoria sponge cake. Please join us as we raise a cup to him.
A message from Tom. ‘A real shame, I really thought Vera Lynn would live longer she’s been speaking so well on TV recently. She had a huge impact on me in Burma and remained important to me throughout my life. My thoughts are with Dame Vera Lynn's family at this sad time’
What a wonderful day full of well wishes, kindness and plenty of cake! Can't think of a better way to finish than clapping extra loudly for all the @NHSuk heroes who continue to do such a magnificent job for us all

A message from Tom 'I could never have imagined this would happen to me. It is such a huge honour and I am very much looking forward to meeting Her Majesty The Queen. It is going to be the most special of days for me'
#FridayWillBeAGoodDay
I don’t suppose many of you have seen because we are all at home, but I have been sent a picture from @AdmediaLtd of a cartoon version of myself at motorway services. What do you think? #walkwithtom#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
WOW 1 million pounds for our beloved NHS!
I may be walking in my garden to raise money, but this is the British public’s contribution. You are all wonderful - and make Great Britain - GREAT.
Thanks to everyone - we stand united even during the most testing of times.
WOW!
A message from Tom "I never thought that, at the age of 100, I would get to travel again. I'm so grateful to everyone who has made this possible. The support I have been shown in 2020 has given me renewed energy and today I get to tick something off my bucket list."
It was lovely to meet Amelia yesterday, such a brave 2-year-old gorgeous girl, coping with the very rare disorder of Au Kline Syndrome. First we compared walkers then we heard and watched a plane go by. #tomorrowwillbeagoodday#thecaptaintomfoundation
A message from Tom: "I continue to be offered lots of lovely items. I really do have everything I need but others are struggling due to Covid-19 so, rather than giving to me, please look to donate these generous offers to a local care home or someone in your community. Thank you”
10 MILLION POUND!
Virtutis Fortuna Comes
I want to thank all the people behind the scenes including @JustGiving, @BBCBreakfast and @GMB for being behind us from the start, and all the wonderful people donating!

I have to say a huge thank you to my local tailors @sousterandhicks who not only helped ensure I looked super dapper for my big day (bespoke regimental blazer, made in record time!) but are also supporting our #NHSheroes on the frontline

Today marks one year since the passing of Captain Sir Tom Moore.
On this anniversary, we remember a figure of inspiration who showed the world how much you can still achieve, even at the grand age of 100. He gave hope to the world and is dearly missed.
2/2 This started as something small and I’ve been overwhelmed by the gratitude and love from the British public and beyond.
We must take this opportunity to recognise our frontline heroes of the National Health Service who put their lives at risk every day to keep us safe.'
1/2 A message from Tom: “It is quite extraordinary that I am turning 100. It is even more extraordinary that I am doing so with this many well-wishers and I am in awe at the response my walking has had...
It’s now £3.5 million, and together we have raised an amazing £2.7 million in 24 hours!
I’m signing off for the day but remember #TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
“If I’ve learned one thing from this year it’s that it is never too late to start something new and make a difference, especially if it brings light and life to people around the world” #TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay#bestnine
WOW - 4 million pound for our NHS!
We cannot wait to tell the news to Tom in the morning, he will not believe his ears!
Thanks each and every one of you - we are in awe of you, but especially our frontline staff who need this now more than ever.
#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
He's done it!

Here’s 10 year old Maisie who’s walking 26 miles for charity. Maisie, who lost her legs to Meningitis was inspired by @captaintommoore to help others and she’s already raised over £1000! . More from @CattMaisie on @BBCLookNorth tonight.
A true national hero. When we all needed a lift during the first lockdown @CaptainTomMoore was there to show us that anything is possible.
Thank you, Captain Sir Tom. #LondonTogether
5 MILLION!
Huge thank you to @JustGiving who had over 90,000 people on Tom's page at one time, and had to try ensure that the site didn't crash.
WOW - just speechless.

Captain Sir Tom & family would like to thank everyone from the bottom of their hearts for all his cards, letters & gifts. Whilst they cannot reply to everyone they are so grateful to every single person who has reached out to them. Thank you!
#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen has announced the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.
"It is an honour to be on the cover of GQ, and to be the oldest ever cover star is certainly something special. And maybe next year, I’ll be the oldest again!” Here is another favourite image from the shoot. Looking forward to Thursday @BritishGQ#GQAwards
Today marks a very special day. One year ago, Captain Tom completed his goal of walking 100 lengths of his garden, which subsequently raised £38.9m for charity.
As we celebrate his achievement, you've been sharing your very own goals for #CaptainTom100.
Keep up the great work!
A message from Tom 'For me VJ Day will always be the most special of days. I am grateful I am able to take a moment with my family today to remember the sacrifices made all those years ago to give us the freedoms we enjoy today
#NeverForgotten#VJDay75#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
Afternoon cake time! Thank you @spongecakesqtin this is incredible, seems a shame to cut into it, but looking forward to a slice with a nice cup of tea
#100thbirthday
Good morning everyone - Another lovely day and we have just looked at the amazing total this morning. Thank you so much to the British public who have offered their support for our incredible @NHSuk.

Delighted to reveal the cover of my children's book One Hundred Steps. Published by @PuffinBooks, in support of the creation of The Captain Tom Foundation and beautifully illustrated by Adam Larkum, the moral of the story is of course #TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
Over the weekend me and my family got the opportunity to speak to @LandoNorris thanks to @McLarenF1 - this is a moment we will never forget, so thank you for your time (especially my Grandson Benjie)! #walkwithtom#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
A smile can do a lot of good so be kind and smile at someone today, you never know what it might mean to them to see a friendly face #WorldKindnessDay#kindfest2020
It’s been a crazy 24 hours, and what with Tom doing his final laps on @BBCBreakfast and @GMB tomorrow, we expect tomorrow to be just as crazy.
Thanks for all your support, and to @KyleBlade1 for this fantastic drawing of our Captain.
Night - see you all in the morning 💕🌈

What a legend! Captain Tom Moore is a total inspiration, raising over £13million for the NHS by walking 100 laps of his garden. I am blown away by his amazing achievement. Congratulations Captain Tom, we could all learn something from you!

#LifeStories#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
When this picture was taken a year ago we had no idea what 2020 had in store. With Christmas just over a week away, we are taking time to reflect on some of the good that has come out of this challenging year. #ThrowbackThursday#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
“I enjoyed watching all the people whose job it was to get me just right, doing a little bit here and a little bit there, fiddling with my collar”. Ready and waiting @BritishGQ#GQAwards
I am fortunate to have a wonderfully close family but there are 225k older people across the UK who can go over a week without speaking to anyone. Please take the time to listen to others and #DonateYourWords… you never know what words you may get back! @CadburyUK@Age_UK
Today, on the first national #DayofReflection, we know many of us are reflecting on incredibly tough times but please take heart and hope by remembering the words of Captain Tom
"We will get through this and come out stronger."
#TomorrowWillBeAGoodDay
Another terrific message, very kind words indeed, thank you @LFC. One of the family in particular is a huge fan so was really excited to see this!
#WalkWithTom#YoullNeverWalkAlone
Congratulations on your fantastic achievement, @captaintommoore 👏
A few familiar faces wanted to let you know you’re a massive inspiration and you’ll never walk alone ❤️
