An East Belfast football club has shared a charity donation between three care homes.
Knockbreda FC wanted to show its support to frontline health workers during the coronavirus crisis.
The club - which plays in the NIFL Championship - raised a sum of money which it distributed to three facilities in the local area.
"One of our players Jake McNeill put a message into the players' group chat during the week about doing a collection for the NHS," said coach Michael Morrow.
"We just wanted to try and do something to help.
"It was suggested that rather than donating to the NHS, we could possibly help closer to home.
"Laurelhill House in Lisburn, Limetree House in Dundonald and Bradley Manor in Belfast were chosen, with the total then divided between the three care homes.
"The club has ave family members who are either being cared for, or working on the front line.
"We thought all three are very worthwhile causes for the work they are doing. Hopefully it helps in some way."
