A young student from Mid-Ulster is encouraging families who have children who suffer from life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses to register for their chance to go on a dream holiday to Florida.

Niamh Scullion from Magherafelt volunteered last year with the Caudwell Children charity to accompany and assist families on the holiday of a lifetime to Florida.

Destination Dreams is an organised holiday to Disney World, Florida, for children fighting life threatening illnesses. Every child has a terminal prognosis or a severely life limiting or threatening condition. The children are accompanied by their immediate family.
