Default Some sad news from BB1

Just read in our local paper tonight that Joanne Harris, the downs syndrome girl who Craig donated his winnings too back in BB1 to help fund a heart and lung transplant, has died aged 25 after picking up an infection last month.

Certainly a memorable moment from the BB1 final when he gave her his winnings. I knew of his intended cause due to coverage in local press, but I don't think it had been picked up by the national press at the time - so the first many people knew of his plans was after he won. C4 subsequently matched the £70,000 jackpot with their own £70,000 donation too.
