A Draperstown boy has received a special surprise in the run-up to Christmas.
The charity, Northern Ireland Children to Lapland and Days to Remember Trust (NICLT), was forced to cancel its annual flight to Lapland and instead has swapped air miles for garden visits.
The NICLT, which takes 100 local children with life-threatening or life-limiting conditions to Lapland every year, has rolled out its new COVID safe festive campaign, delivering gifts to 101 very special children across Northern Ireland.
One of those to receive gifts was six-year-old Tiernan McCullagh from Draperstown.
