Captain Sir Tom Moore, who captured hearts all over the world for his fundraising efforts in his 100th year, has been given a military funeral in Bedfordshire.

The Second World War veteran's coffin arrived at the site of the service draped in a union flag and carried by members of the Yorkshire Regiment, in which he too served. 🇬🇧

A Dakota aircraft performed a flypast ahead of a three-round gun salute by a firing party before the coffin was carried into the building. ✈️

A number of special items were placed on it, including a replica of Captain Sir Tom's service cap from the Second World War and a wreath from the Yorkshire Regiment.
