DR Adrian McGoldrick was honoured by the Order of Malta at a special Mass last weekend.

From Newbridge in Co Kildare, Adrian was the senior medical officer for the Turf Club/IHRB from 2007 to 2018. Before that he was medical officer for the Curragh Racecourse since 1985.

The Order of Malta (full name Order of St John of Jerusalem) has been offering its services to the poor and sick for over 900 years. The Irish Association of the Order is this year celebrating the 850th anniversary.
