Stars on the ball to raising E30m for charities

Jimmy Woulfe, Mid-East Correspondent

Earlier yesterday, a judge in the Circuit Civil Court ordered the return of the U2 star’s trousers in an action taken against a former employee of the band. And, in Adare last night, a jacket belonging to Bono, which he wore at the Grammy Awards ceremony, was one of the many lots auctioned at a gala banquet following the McManus Golf Classic.

The two-day event is expected to raise up to E30 million for charities in the mid-west.
