Real festive spirit as 11-year-old Cork boy makes family’s Christmas

The Christmas spirit is alive and well in Cork city, where an 11-year-old boy from Fermoy spent most of his Christmas budget to buy gifts for a homeless woman’s children.

The O'Donovan-Campbell family , including mum Imelda and son Isaac were out Christmas shopping in Cork at the weekend, and arranged to meet up at a landmark.

But when Imelda got to the Brown Thomas store on Patrick Street, Isaac and his dad weren't there.
