George Michael heads all-star campaign launch
George Michael has joined a host of other celebrities at a campaign launch to help raise £20m (€28m) for terminally ill children.
The singer lent his support to the British charity Rainbow Trust, alongside well known faces from the worlds of music, TV, film and sport, including Julie Walters, Gary Rhodes and Linford Christie.
Michael, who is one of the patrons of the charity, said he had been supporting its work since 1990.
At the launch, he said: "It is an amazing charity. It cares for children who are potentially terminally ill. Loss is such an incredibly difficult thing. I bow down to people who actually have to deal with the loss of a child.
"The Rainbow Trust not only takes care of a child but they also take very good care of the family and understand the family's situation, and I think that is an incredibly important thing."
