What the petition asks

Captain Tom Moore has demonstrated absolute dedication to a cause that is currently at the heart of the Nation, supporting the NHS. The Captain has carried out his fundraising action driven purely from freewill and his dedication to continue serving the people of the UK. This gentleman's incredible effort at the tender age of 100, must be recognised in a manner befitting such a courageous spirit. He has uplifted the spirits of the Nation
Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
We know lots of people want to petition for Colonel Moore to receive an honour, but the Government will only accept individual nominations, not petitions, so we can’t publish your petition.
