Also thanks to the buyers of all the numbers on the Bonus Ball sheet and indeed to anyone else for their generosity in making donations towards this wonderful charity.

There is no knowing when any one of us might need help of the Air Ambulance and the very good news is that the money we have managed to raise fills the Air Ambulance Helicopter with fuel four times, so well done and thanks to everyone for making that possible.

This latest effort means that in the past two years Drumnavaddy Inv HPS has given a total of £5,800 to the Air Ambulance Ni Charity, this is amazing amount.
