Club Nook – the company used to channel £1.4 million for Capt Sir Tom Moore’s books which was supposed to go to charity – is now worth just £850. In April 2021 it had reserves of £484,894.
A business owned by Captain Sir Tom Moore’s daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore is now worth just £850 – despite previously having reserves of £484,894.
Ingram-Moore’s business empire has taken a nosedive, five years today since her father died aged 100 after a heroic NHS fundraising effort. She faced a backlash after she and husband Colin were accused of pocketing £800,000 in cash from a book deal – giving none to Capt Tom’s good cause.
A damning Charity Commission report in November 2024 found it was among moves by the Ingram-Moores to cash in on the fame of Capt Tom. The couple were also ordered to demolish a luxury spa that had been built in the grounds of their home in Marston Moretaine, Beds., using the Captain Tom Foundation charity name.

Club Nook the company used to channel £1.4 million for his books which was supposed to go to charity, is now worth just £850. In April 2021 it had reserves of £484,894. Numerous other businesses are also nowhere near as financially well-off as they once were, according to the most recent accounts available.
The family management consultancy business Matrix Group Limited, set up in 2010, was £117,880 in the red as of August 2024. In August 2021 it was £196,000 in the black. Another consultancy company run by Hannah and Colin Ingram Moore called Paull and Dilley Limited is £34,226 in the red.

Whitaker Global Limited set up in 2015, another management consultancy, was £14,250 in the red as of January 2025. In January 2022 it was worth £60,202.
The 1189808 Foundation – formerly the Captain Tom Foundation (changed in January 2025) Still has £131,110 as of Nov 30, 2024. Tredwell Success Limited set up in October 2020 and initially called CTV (2020) Ltd, has a loss of £3,530 as of the end of October 2024. In 2022 it was £23,820.
Club Nook Limited has reserves of just £850 as of April 30, 2025. In April 2021 it had reserves of £484,894. It was the controversial company used by Hannah Ingram Moore to receive an advance payment on Capt Tom books.
The charity commission found that Club Nook, set up by the Ingram-Moores in April 2020, was paid an advance of £1.47m for Capt Sir Tom’s three books, including his best-selling autobiography, Tomorrow Will be a Good Day.
The publisher Penguin, and promoter Carver PR, said the family gave repeated assurances that part of the advance would be used to set up and fund the foundation. A source said: “The Captain Tom story is a tragedy.
“What should have gone down in history as one of the greatest fundraising efforts ever is now mired in controversy. Who would have expected it to have unravelled like this five years ago?”
She still presents regular Youtube videos called Moore Moments – dubbed as sharing “remarkable stories” – often about resilience. But on Youtube, these often only get fewer than 200 views. On her website, she describes herself as an author, motivational speaker and business mentor.
Captain Tom became a global icon during Covid after walking 100 laps of his garden before his 100th birthday. He raised nearly £40 million for NHS charities.
After his death, there were tributes from The Queen, the Prime Minister and a huge number of celebrities. Ingram-Moore was approached for comment.
