Millions of pages turned for charity

WHETHER it’s Harry Potter or the Famous Five, young bookworms have turned over millions of pages for charity.

More than 30,000 youngsters have made it another highly successful year for the Multiple Sclerosis Society’s readathon, raising more than €1 million through sponsored book reading.

Up to 80 of them packed the Conrad Hotel in Dublin yesterday for a prizegiving ceremony hosted by Den TV’s Geri Maye.
