Prime Minister Boris Johnson has encouraged members of the public to clap for Captain Sir Tom Moore at 6pm this evening (Wednesday), according to the BBC.
The 100-year-old, who raised almost £33m for NHS charities by walking laps of his garden, died with coronavirus in Bedford Hospital on Tuesday.
Mr Johnson said the clap would also be for "all those health workers for whom he raised money".
He added Capt Sir Tom's life was "a long life lived well".
