Captain Tom Moore's Mansion Listings Revised

The family of Captain Sir Tom Moore has reduced the asking price of his former Bedfordshire mansion by £250,000 and removed all references to him from the listing. Initially priced at £2.25 million, the property is now available for offers over £2 million, with no images or mentions of Captain Tom's charity work included. This shift follows criticism of Hannah Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin regarding their financial benefit from the Captain Tom Foundation, which was found by the Charity Commission to have significant governance issues. The foundation, established to honor Captain Tom's legacy, reportedly resulted in the couple pocketing over £1 million despite public donations intended for charitable purposes. Captain Tom, a Second World War veteran, gained fame for raising nearly £39 million for charity during the COVID-19 pandemic before his death in 2021. The initial listing had prominently featured images of Captain Tom and his achievements, but the current marketing strategy appears to distance the property from his legacy.
