Antony Jasper Hudgell (born Tony Smith; 8 October 2014) is a British fundraiser and recipient of Pride of Britain and UK Points of Light awards. In 2020, aged five, inspired by Captain Tom Moore’s fundraising walk, he walked 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) on his prosthetic legs throughout June 2020 and raised £1.8 million for the Evelina London Children's Hospital (NHS), where he had received care after receiving life-changing injuries inflicted by his birth parents when he was a baby. Hudgell also inspired English law changes. "Tony's Law", enacted in the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022, increased prison sentences for those convicted of child cruelty and neglect. And, in February 2026, a campaign for a new child safety register resulted in an amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill.
