IRISH rugby legend Brian O’Driscoll was among the stars that turned out for the Irish Youth Foundation’s (IYF) annual Rock ‘n’ Rugby event.
Held at the Chancery Rosewood hotel in London’s Grosvenor Square on the eve of Ireland's record-breaking Six Nations victory over England at Twickenham, the event raised funds which will support the work of the IYF charity.
Hosted by former England rugby international Martin Bayfield, the afternoon included a fireside chat with O'Driscoll.
