Captain Tom's family reaped ‘significant personal benefit’ by misleading public, Charity Commission says
CHARITY champion Captain Tom’s daughter and son-in-law repeatedly misled the public to cash in on goodwill towards the late NHS fundraiser, an inquiry said today.
Hannah and Colin Ingram-Moore engaged in a “pattern of behaviour” to reap “significant personal benefit” from their involvement in the Captain Tom Foundation, the Charity Commission report said.
The public “would understandably feel misled” to learn that sales of his autobiography Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day would have not benefited the charity, it added.
