The parents of a Co Down child who was injured in a crash last year, have hailed those who came to his assistance

.

After a long six-hour surgery, Danny had a plate installed in his leg, microsurgery to repair his damaged nerves and tendons, as well as plastic surgery to repair an open wound. "We cannot thank Air Ambulance medical team enough for their help that day. If it wasn’t for their quick response and turnaround, Danny’s injuries could have been a lot worse."

Wanting to do even more, Danny’s dad Larry took on the mighty challenge of running the Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon in April for the charity. "The Byrne families support for the charity and HEMS team has been outstanding and is very much appreciated by the entire team. By becoming a Club AANI member, and through all their hard fundraising efforts, they will in turn help someone else who may find themselves in a difficult situation, as Danny was once in."
