The daughter of Captain Sir Tom Moore has admitted her family kept profits from three books he had written.
Captain Sir Tom Moore’s daughter has said her family kept £800,000 in profits from three of his books because it was “what he wanted”.
On why the book money did not go to charity, she said: “They were my father’s books. He wrote them and he decided what to do with the income from them.“He made the decision about the things that he did. We didn’t act for him.” He claimed that the prologue of Captain Tom’s autobiography, Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day, also seems to suggest it was raising funds for the foundation.She said: “There is a forum… they were all discussing how they were going to come and kill us all.”Sir Tom had his knighthood conferred on him by the late Queen in July 2020 in recognition of his fundraising achievements.
This summer, the foundation stopped taking money from donors after planning chiefs at Central Bedfordshire Council ordered that an unauthorised spa pool block at Ms Ingram-Moore’s home should be demolished. Ms Ingram-Moore said she wants the site to be a “community building” to celebrate her father’s legacy, but added “this building was not to do with the charity”.
The watchdog’s intervention into the foundation had a “massive adverse impact” on fundraising, the charity’s accounts published last month stated.
