Overview
- Preston Mahon, 54, has launched a GoFundMe seeking roughly €32,000–€35,000 for an operation to clear arteries in both legs after earlier treatment failed.
- The GoFundMe publicly lists Tomlinson’s £4,000 contribution, and Mahon said he was “so appreciative” and messaged the singer to thank him.
- Reports say NHS clinicians indicated limited intervention until a bypass or amputation is required, prompting Mahon to pursue private care.
- Mahon previously paid for angioplasty and stents in Spain and says he has exhausted his savings on treatment.
- After Tomlinson’s gift, an additional anonymous £4,000 pledge early Friday took the fundraiser total past about £10,800.
