A FIVE-year-old Newport boy is tackling his own fundraising challenge after being inspired by the story of Captain Tom Moore. Thomas Hunt, five, heard about the Captain Tom s story in school, and how he had walked 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS. At the same time, Thomas aunt was trying to raise funds for the people of St Vincent, an island in the Caribbean, who have been displaced by volcano eruptions. Inspired by Captain Tom, Thomas decided he would embark on his own fundraising challenge, completing 100 backflips. With the money he has raised through sponsorship already, Thomas has provided care packages for a school full of displaced residents, 38 families in total.
