DORSET disability charity Diverse Abilities has received a £5,000 donation from King of the Jungle, Harry Redknapp.

The football manager, who was crowned the winner of 2018's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, added another trophy to his collection by winning the Sportsman with a Personality Award - the first award designed to celebrate sportsmen and women for their personalities rather than talent.

As part of the trophy itself, Harry Redknapp’s victory also secured a £5,000 cash prize for his chosen charity – Diverse Abilities. The Dorset-based charity has enjoyed the support of Harry Redknapp over the past few years and the money will go towards supporting children and adults with disabilities across the county.

Harry, who lives in Sandbanks, said: “It’s not been a bad few weeks for me and public votes! It was terrific to be named king of the jungle, but now I’m very humbled to have won another award. Sport is full of characters, so to get recognised is very rewarding.

“The most important part of this win is the charity prize. I’m delighted to be able to continue my support for Diverse Abilities, they do tremendous work and every penny is vital for them, so I hope this makes a real impact.”
