Captain Sir Tom Moore has been knighted in the Queen’s first official engagement in person since lockdown.

The investiture to honour the 100-year-old, who raised more than £32m for NHS charities, was staged in a “unique ceremony” at Windsor Castle.

He is being honoured for walking more than 100 laps of a 82ft (25m) loop in his garden in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire.

Capt Sir Tom said it was “the most special of days for me”.
