Belfast community's fundraising efforts after death of young dad

The death of a popular Belfast man has kickstarted a mammoth fundraising effort in aid of those who cared for him during his illness.

Tommy Kavanagh, who was from Derry, but made home off the Glen Road, in the west of the city, was a well-known father-of-three, doting husband and proud St James Swifts man.

The 43-year-old was diagnosed with stage 4 CRC cancer in December 2021. He died peacefully at the NI Hospice on February 8, 2023, surrounded by his wife Karen, children Niall, Leo and Conor.
