The Guardian reports
today: "Watchdogs have launched a formal investigation into concerns that the family of NHS fundraiser Captain Sir Tom Moore personally profited from the charity set up in his name.
" But it seems inappropriate to add this, because (a) the charity is not mentioned anywhere in the article and (b) it has nothing to so with Moore himself.

Moore's date of enlistment
According to this Moore was conscripted into the Army in April 1936 just before his 16th birthday and selected for officer training at 16 and a half. No way did this happen - I suspect his enlistment date would have been 1938 or 9. Can someone check — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.39.165.35 ( talk) 23:01, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
As Captain Tom Foundation links to this page, I think we need a section on it. We can keep it brief and very non-committal (for obvious reasons), but it needs to be there. Boynamedsue ( talk) 18:39, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

If you do a web search currently for "Hannah Ingram-Moore", this page is the first result (at least on Google).
Noting the various significant, national contraversies surronding Mrs. Ingram-Moore, from how the charity she founded has been run, a building errected for the business which now has to be demolished, it seems rather odd she does not have her own page on Wikipedia with this information presented in a clear and factual way. 185.184.140.15 ( talk) 11:26, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
In the sections above, we have consensus for inclusion of details on the problems of the CTF, and several different users have added the information. However, these additions have been reverted twice by the same user:
