What the petition asks
Give the 99 year old veteran a knighthood for his services to the country and for raising over £4 million for the NHS in less than a week
Tom Moore served in India and Burma in the second world War. The service that he has received from the NHS has challenged him to walk 100 lengths of his garden to raise £1000. Less than a week later he has raised over £4 million for the NHS. He is a legend and deserves a knighthood for all his work and contributions to our country.
