Fire orphans’ trust fund gallops ahead

THE trust fund for the Waterford children orphaned by a house fire last year has increased substantially, thanks to the combined efforts of local gardaí and racing jockeys.

Last night a cheque for €12,295 was handed over by four horse riders to O’Regan Children Trust Fund.

The trust was set up last year to help provide for Cian, 11, Brianna, seven, and Aaron, six.
