Captain Sir Tom, who has since been given the honorary title of Colonel, caught the public's attention when he walked 100 maps of his garden in Marston Moretaine before his 100th birthday.
Amazingly, he raised more than £38million - instead of his £1,000 target - for NHS Charities in just four weeks.
In doing so he also broke two Guinness World Records, and was awarded the country’s very first individual investiture by Her Majesty the Queen at Windsor Castle.

Hide Ad‘An Audience with Hannah Ingram-Moore' will take place via Zoom at 1pm on August 25 and is a ticket-only event. It is free to Hospice Business Club members, but tickets for non-members are priced at £35. All proceeds go to Willen Hospice.
Hannah said: “This year has been unprecedented for us all. As a family we could never have predicted how our lives would change in such a small space of time. I think most people think they know our story, but really they’ve seen only a snippet of what happened during just 17 weeks of our lives.
“I am delighted to be part of this exclusive event for Willen Hospice. It will be an opportunity to hear how the fundraiser spiralled into a worldwide phenomenon, how we managed it and how it has impacted on us since. It’s been an emotional, life-changing journey, and one we are ready to talk about."
