His charity run in the garden made the 100-year-old world famous. 32 million pounds were raised for caregivers in the corona pandemic – now Tom Moore himself has died after suffering from corona disease.

This story went around the world: 100-year-old Brit Tom Moore ran 100 laps in his own garden last year. Always with the aim of collecting as many donations as possible for the caregivers of the corona pandemic. And with great success: no less than £ 32 million was raised in the selfless action.

Queen Elizabeth knighted him

And that not only made him world famous, because the Queen herself knighted the war veteran last year for his service.

Now Tom Moore has died with his family himself after a corona illness. He had not yet been vaccinated because of the pneumonia medication.
