Having raised tens of thousands of pounds for various charities including his own Willie’s Orphan Fund, Portrush barman Willie Gregg ‘pawsed’ pulling pints to stage the fourth annual dog walk in memory of his beloved mother Joan.

Wee Joan’s Dog Walk raised funds for three charities – Willie’s Orphan Fund, Children to Lapland and Children’s Kidney Fund NI.

Willie Gregg said: "From the four-legged walkers (and the two-legged ones trying to keep up!) to everyone who donated, bought raffle tickets, gave prizes, volunteered or simply came along to support us, we really can’t thank you enough.

"It was brilliant to see so many familiar faces, wagging tails and happy pups enjoying the day, all while raising money for three very special causes.

"Thank you to every single person who took part or donated. Your support and generosity really does make a difference.”
