    Second World War veteran and NHS fundraising hero Captain Sir Tom Moore has been knighted by the Queen in a ceremony at Windsor Castle. The 100-year-old, who raised more than £32 million for the NHS by walking laps of his Bedfordshire garden, was joined by his family for the special investiture. Her Majesty used the sword that belonged to her father, Geroge VI, as she presented Captain Sir Tom with the insignia of Knight Bachelor.

      Firsteerr Lastmwwew Donations do not go into salaries or bonuses of any member of staff in the NHS. General managers such as a GP practice managers don’t receive bonuses. The NHS don’t use MacBooks day to day as the software they use is only supported on Windows and a much older version of Windows. Go to any GP surgery or hospital and you won’t see a Mac that is for commercial use as oppose to personal use.
