WHEN her fundraising father Captain Tom Moore hit the headlines for his pandemic efforts, his daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore was never far from the spotlight.
But before that, she was “one of Britain’s leading business women”, according to her official website.
She is also described as a life coach and motivational speaker, with the site saying she has gained a “wealth of knowledge and expertise” from working over the years with well-known brands including clothing retailer Gap and high-end department store Fortnum & Mason.
Her story has been “one of business, family and leadership”, the website stated.

When Moore soared to prominence as Covid-19 spread across the globe, Ingram-Moore – one of the veteran’s two daughters – often gave interviews and appeared in photographs and video footage taken by the media as her father’s charitable efforts captured the imagination of a locked-down UK.
She spoke of the “richness of living in a multi-generational household”, having asked her elderly father to move in with her family in their property in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire – on the lawn of which he completed his 100 laps, raising £38.9 million for the NHS.
Alongside her chartered accountant husband, Colin, Ingram-Moore co-founded business recruitment agency Maytrix and both are co-directors of private limited company Club Nook.
Ingram-Moore accompanied her father to the regal surrounds of Windsor Castle in the summer of 2020 to see him knighted, and took a seat in the Royal Box at Wimbledon months after Sir Tom’s death in 2021 where she stood to applause and cheers.
But just three years later she and her husband had been banned by the Charity Commission from being charity trustees.
Ingram-Moore described the commission’s inquiry as a “harrowing and debilitating ordeal” which had left the family feeling suspended in “constant fear and mental anguish”.
A quote on her website, attributed to Ingram-Moore, described how she feels a “weight of responsibility for doing the right thing, for not letting people down and responding to the love and compassion that has come our way”.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
