Bedford man to walk 100 lengths of his garden for NHS before his 100th birthday

We are all rightly being advised to stay home and that is exactly what 99-year-old Tom Moore is doing.

But - having been inspired by the treatment he received from the NHS after breaking his hip and for skin cancer - Tom, who was stationed in India, fighting on the Arakan and Burma during the Second World War, has decided to raise cash before his 100th birthday.

Born in April 1920, Tom - who moved to Marston Moretaine in 2007 - has pledged to walk 100 lengths of his 50 metre-long garden and donate 100 per cent of the funds raised to NHS

Charities Together.

The NHS Charities Together represents, supports and champions the work of the NHS’ official charities. It gives £1million a day to the NHS.
