Golfer makes £1 million donation

Golfer Rory McIlroy has made a £1 million donation to a children’s cancer charity in Northern Ireland.
The donation to the Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children (NICFC) will be paid over four years to support the running costs of Daisy Lodge in Newcastle, County Down, which provides free therapeutic breaks to families affected by cancer.
The money will be provided through the Rory Foundation which he set up in 2013 to support children’s charities around the world.
McIlroy said:

“I was overwhelmed by the honesty, the courage and the warmth of the children and teenagers there and immediately made the decision to enhance my support of the Cancer Fund for Children”.

NICFC Chief Executive Gillian Creevy said Rory made a personal commitment to their work over the last 18 months. She added:
