A 99 year old veteran soldier here in the UK thought that he would do his bit for our National Health Service charities by walking a hundred laps of his back garden with the aim of raising a £1,000.

Not only did he eclipse this figure in the first day his actions touched the soul of not only our Nation but of people throughout the whole world and donations came flooding in.

He quickly became a TV and Radio star with daily interviews and his manner has produced a National Treasure for us and a figure of inspiration for people throughout the world.

We are just watching our BBC TV Breakfast Show where they are broadcasting from his Garden where a Guard of Honour from the Yorkshire Regiment are standing to attention as he complete the 100th lap.

Captain Tom has vowed to continue as long as donations keep coming in to the just giving website.

We are so proud of him and of the people who have donated, a huge thankyou to you all for reading this and perhaps following his lead, stay safe.

So far he has raised over £12,000,000
