Captain Sir Tom Moore, who inspired people around the world when he raised millions for the NHS, has died aged 100 after testing positive for Covid-19. He was taken to hospital last week and was being treated for pneumonia. The army veteran won the hearts of many in the UK and abroad by walking 100 laps of his garden before his 100th birthday, ultimately raising over NZ$60 million for the national health service.
