Chief Executive, Declan McGeown, presented a cheque for £6,594.25 to Air Ambulance representative Grace Williams at Woodlands Juvenile Justice Centre in Bangor.
Declan McGeown said, “This is a tremendous achievement by our staff and the young people with whom we work and it is all the more remarkable given the Covid-19 constraints we have all faced throughout the past year.
“Our charity partnership arrangement creates a win-win situation.
