MLA's praise Breath Easy

MLAs Gregory Campbell and John Dallat set aside their political differences, as they released the tape to start 35 intrepid walkers on a fundraising venture.

Breathe Easy Causeway, the local British Lung Foundation support group, were organisers of the challenging 12-mile walk from Coleraine Marina to Portstewart, Portrush and back in aid of respiratory illness.

Breathe Easy Chairperson, Nessie Blair led the group of members and friends in their annual fund-raising challenge.

Both Mr Campbell and Mr Dallat praised the enterprise and commitment of Breathe Easy members to raise awareness of the continuing campaign to combat lung disease, the only major cause of death that is increasing in the UK.

At the Breathe Easy Causeway annual meeting on Thursday, June 24 details will be given of the success of recent money-raising efforts and of the longer term blueprint to develop BLF services throughout Northern Ireland.
