Edith Wilkins charity urged to reject Allen donation

An SDLP politician has urged the Edith Wilkins Foundation to refuse to accept a €40,000 donation from well-known chef Tim Allen, who was convicted of possessing child pornography last week.

The judge in the case agreed not to send Allen to jail if he made the donation, but SDLP Assembly member Patricia Lewsley has urged the charity to turn away the 'tainted money'.
