My housemate (a junior dr) grabbed the hospital's spares, took the whole houseshare. That's how I ended up drunk among nurses at Wembley.

For children

The founder of Childline, a charity that enables children to anonymously phone counsellors for help, revealed that George Michael had donated millions over the years.

“For years now he has been the most extraordinarily generous philanthropist, giving money to Childline. But he was determined not to make his generosity public, so no-one outside the charity knew how much he gave to the nation’s most vulnerable children,” Dame Esther Rantzen told the Press Association.

“I think all of us have memories of particular Wham! songs and George Michael songs which mean a great deal to us. Certainly, for Britain’s children, George Michael meant so much more,” she said.

For people with disabilities

The pop superstar also donated money to his Platinum Trust, which ran in aid of people with special educational needs according to a 2011 book about his life. Twitter users described it, too.
