Coleraine charity auction event
The organisers of the charity fashion show and celebrity auction at the Lodge Hotel this Friday have spoken of their sadness at the death of Boyzone singer Stephen Gately.
The star, who was found dead at his holiday home in Majorca on Sunday, was one of the celebrities who had donated auction items for the event in aid of breast cancer and the Alzheimer's Society.
Organiser Cindy Marshall said: "Donna Ward, who has secured lots of fantastic items for our celebrity auction, told me last night that the letter that Boyzone signed for us was probably one of the last things they all signed together before they all broke for holidays."
The letter is personally signed to Cindy who was going to keep it as a memento of the charity event.
"I was going to keep it as it has my name on it but will auction it off on the evening as I am sure there are so many fans out there that would really cherish it.
"The main item that was sent for the auction is a signed CD that Boyzone sent.
"The boys were so kind and so supportive of our fundraising event and it is so sad to think that only a few weeks ago Stephen signed these items," she said.
Indeed there are countless items up for auction including a Broadway programme signed by 'Tony Soprano' himself kaka actor James Gandolfini.
It's just the latest A-list celebrity item which has been donated for auction. Theatre buffs will be bidding high for a signed programme from a current Broadway play starring James Bond actor Daniel Craig and X-Men's Wolverine aka Hugh Jackman.
The play "A Steady Rain" made the headlines last week when Jackman stopped a performance to chastise an audience member whose mobile phone was ringing.
Added to the already impressive list of auction items are personally autographed CDs from Britney Spears, Mariah Carey and Aerosmith.
Actor Orlando Bloom has also donated a signed photo of himself and a photograph of him with his fellow actors from the comedy series "Extras".
Pictured in the photograph are Bloom himself, Ricky Gervais, Sir Ian McKellen, David Bowie and Coldplay's Chris Martin - all of whom have signed the picture. Orlando has also sent a letter of good luck to the event organisers - which will be auctioned on the night.
And there is much, much more up for auction from stars of stage, screen and the world of sport at the Lodge Hotel on October 16.
The event is now totally SOLD OUT however people can still phone in with auction bids. If you are interested in any of the items up for auction then call 028 7035 5888 and you will be issued with a phone number on which to bid during the night.

Orlando Bloom Named UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador
From prnewswire.com:
NEW YORK, Oct. 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Actor Orlando Bloom was appointed a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador today, in recognition of his commitment to the rights of children around the world.
"Advocacy from UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors helps build momentum to improve the lives of children around the world," said UNICEF Executive Director, Ann M. Veneman. "We are proud to have Orlando Bloom as one of the strong voices for vulnerable children."
Mr. Bloom has already seen the work UNICEF is doing in Nepal, Russia, and Sarajevo. And he is committed to supporting UNICEF's efforts. "I look forward to working with UNICEF as they continue to make the world a better place for children," he said.
Mr. Bloom said he wants to be an active Ambassador for the children's organization. He will follow in the footsteps of such luminaries as Audrey Hepburn, Danny Kaye, Shakira, Sir Roger Moore, David Beckham, Jackie Chan, Mia Farrow, Vanessa Redgrave and many others. These ambassadors devote their time to raising awareness of UNICEF, and influencing global policy on behalf of children around the world.
Mr. Bloom has supported UNICEF's work since 2007, when he first visited schools in the remote western districts of Kaski and Chitwan, two of the poorest areas of Nepal. He was able to see how UNICEF's water and sanitation programmes benefit local families. In Nepal, Orlando spoke about the importance of education; and when asked by the children, he agreed to perform a small role in their local school radio production.
Mr. Bloom went to Nepal again in June 2008 to see how UNICEF and its partners are working to provide clean water for children and families. He has also visited the Krasnoselsky centre in Moscow, a shelter for children from economically vulnerable families.
Mr. Bloom said, "UNICEF doesn't just deliver humanitarian aid, which is what they are known for all over the world. They also educate and provide tools which help women and children face challenges specific to their own lives. I responded to how UNICEF works as much as I did to the work itself. I look forward to learning more and to supporting UNICEF any way I can."
To celebrate 20 years of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, Orlando Bloom will, this week, record a Public Service Announcement (PSA) for UNICEF on the importance of clean and accessible drinking water. The PSA can be watched on: http://www.unicef.org/rightsite/364_374.htm
Wonderful news for a wonderful man!

Orlando's mother stages charity auction
Orlando Bloom's mother is selling some of the costumes he wore while filming the Lord of the Rings trilogy in an attempt to clear out his room before she moves house.
Sonia Copeland Bloom said he didn't mind – as long as the proceeds went to charity.
Copeland Bloom, who lives in Canterbury, Kent, said: "I have spoken to Orlando, who is quite happy for me to get as much as I can for charity.
"There are some real collector's items among them and they will all be authenticated by me by letter."
Among the items up for grabs are a bodyline wetsuit used by Bloom, 32, when he filmed a scene with Elijah Wood in The Return of the King and a poster signed by the entire cast.
A pair of Moroccan slippers and boots he wore in The Kingdom of Heaven could also entice film buffs.
But fans of Bloom – who now lives in west London – can also get their hands on more personal items such as the badminton and tennis racquets he used as a boy.
Gucci shoes, Puma trainers, polo shirts and a hooded waterproof Gap jacket belonging to the star will also be auctioned.
Sonia Copeland Bloom said: "We are inviting people to send us bids, of which the top ones will be invited to see the items before submitting a further sealed bid."
She said any cash raised will be divided between four charities, Unesco, the New Marlow Theatre, cancer charity Odyssey and the UKC Music Scholarships.
