"I have been truly inspired by Captain Tom Moore and his pure determination and willingness to help the NHS who are doing such an incredible job.
"I have a sister who is working on the front line in ITU and a mum who is busy dealing with NHS patients in the community.
"I am seeing first hand the hard work staff are putting in and wanted to do my bit to help them and support Captain Tom in his fundraising.
