My 12 year old son Charlie sat for hours last night watching out our window at the devestation being caused by the ongoing wildfire in the mourne mountains.

Charlie has learning difficulties, and

he was petrified we were going to have to be evacuated during the night due to the fire.

This morning he has decided he would like to try and do something to help, so he thinks he would like to be able to bring crates of bottled water and some snacks for energy to the brave guys and girls fighting the fire and putting their lives at risk to protect us all in the town!

I’m so proud at the thought of him wanting to spend his savings on helping out!

If anyone else would like to donate please use this link, any money that is left over will be donated straight to NIFRS once they have been stood down from this catastrophic emergency.

Thanks for reading!
