Hannah Ingram Moore was paid £18,000 to attend Captain Tom awards – but only donated £2,000 to late dad’s charity
HANNAH Ingram-Moore was paid £18,000 to attend the Captain Tom awards - but donated just £2,000 of it to his charity.
The veteran's daughter was paid the large sum to attend the Virgin Media O2 Captain Tom Foundation Connector Awards in 2021.
At the time, she was already receiving a handsome annual salary of £85,000 pro-rata as chief executive of the charity.
The £18,000 was paid to her family firm, Maytrix Group, of which she kept £16,000.
Hannah donated just £2,000 to the Captain Tom Foundation.
Holding back tears during a bombshell interview on TalkTV's Piers Morgan Uncensored, she said: "I think it’s all very easy to look back and think I should have made different decisions, but I hadn’t planned on being the CEO."

The family admit no one now wants to touch them or their associated companies.
They have been attacked by the public for swathes of decisions, including Maytrix Group taking up to £100,000 in furlough money and £47,500 in Covid loans despite bumper profits in the pandemic.
The Captain Tom Moore Foundation accounts also reveal spending more on admin fees that it did on charity grants.
Nearly all the £39million Captain Tom helped to raise was paid directly to NHS Charities Together.

The Captain Tom Foundation was set up as a separate charity to receive further donations.
In its first year, it received nearly £1.1million, of which it spent less than half.
Hannah also revealed her "regret" over building a spa and pool complex at the family's £1.2million home in Bedfordshire.
Cameras were let inside the controversial poolhouse for the first time after the family were slammed for its construction.
Hannah and husband Colin had told planners they wanted an office for the charity set up in her dad's name.
But what was meant to be a small charity office for the Captain Tom Foundation actually became a poolhouse with changing rooms, toilets and showers.
And they are still holding out hope they will be able to use it in the future, despite being ordered to tear the facility down.
