Final nail for Captain Tom’s daughter’s charity as website is REMOVED – after probe found she personally profited

CAPTAIN Tom's daughter's charity was dealt a final blow as its website was removed following a probe that found she personally profited from it. The web page for The Captain Tom Foundation disappeared just months after a Charity Commission investigation was highly critical of Hannah Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin Ingram-Moore.
They had both been made trustees in 2021 for the elderly support charity that had been founded a year prior, named for WW2 Captain Sir Tom Moore. Now, when trying to locate the charity's website, users are met with a message claiming that the domain is "not claimed".
Both Hannah and Colin were disqualified from being charity trustees after the humiliating probe found the pair had received "significant personal benefit" from the "mismanaged" foundation. The Charity Commission report also highlighted "repeated failures" with both Hannah and Colin's leadership and "repeated instances of misconduct and/ or mismanagement".
This comes as Hannah's own business Club Nook, that she co-runs with her husband, had collapsed, according to accounts filed with Companies House. The business had been created to manage The Captain Tom Foundation's commercial interests and intellectual property.
But the latest documents have shown it only has current assets of £149, a stark contrast to last year's £336,300. Liabilities have also dropped from £106,104 to £19,246 net within a year. Father Captain Tom inspired the nation by raising £39m with a sponsored walk during the first Covid lockdown.
