Enfield Council lowers flag in memory of Capt. Sir Tom Moore and all those who have died with coronavirus

On behalf of Enfield Council I would like to take this opportunity to not only mark the death of Capt. Sir Tom Moore who has been a truly inspirational figure for the whole nation during the pandemic, but to express our condolences to all those who have lost friends and family during this national crisis.

Over 100,000 people have died with coronavirus in the UK, including more than 700 Enfield residents.

Captain Sir Tom Moore raised nearly £33m for the NHS by walking laps of his garden in Bedfordshire last year. It is a moment for us to remember the extraordinary work public sector workers in the NHS are doing, particularly those on the frontline, as they care for the many people who are currently unwell with coronavirus.
