THE daughter of fundraiser Captain Sir Tom Moore and her husband have been slammed by a watchdog for pocketing over £1million in his name.
Hannah Ingram-Moore, 53, and husband Colin, 66, gained significant financial benefit from links to a charity the Captain Tom Foundation that they set up in 2020, a report says.
The Charity Commission said its probe into the foundation uncovered "repeated failures of governance and integrity".
Second World War veteran Capt Tom raised nearly £39m for charity during the pandemic by walking 100 lengths of his garden ahead of his 100th birthday in April 2020.
He was knighted months later and died aged 100 in 2021.
The Charity Commission's statutory inquiry has found the Ingram-Moores "misconduct and/ or mismanagement [was a] repeated pattern of behaviour".
It added sales of Capt Tom's autobiography Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day did not benefit the Captain Tom Foundation. In the prologue he wrote of being given "the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation established in my name".
