THE ULTIMATE
Fundraising ace, and former World War Two soldier, Captain Tom Moore, has received the BBC's Blue Peter's highest award, its Gold Blue Peter Badge!
Captain Tom, has raised over £30m for the NHS charity, by walking 100 laps of his garden at age 99 before he turned 100 - in honour of the work doctors, nuses and healthworkers are doing to keep the United Kingdom safe. Then he teamed up with singer Michael Ball, and shot to Number One in the charts, with 'You'll Never Walk Alone', becoming the oldest holder of the chart topping position - beating Tom Jones' record at 68. Tom's grandchildren Benji and Georgia, aided Blue Peter presenter Lindsey Russell in giving the prestigious award, held by the likes of the Queen and David Attenborough, to Captain Tom. What can you learn from Captain Tom and his achievements, and his positivity? see more on the BBC's Newsround page at: https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/52551934
