A YOUTH and Community Worker for NI Cancer Fund for Children from Lisburn who has been selected to carry the Olympic torch is calling on local people to support his fundraising activities.
Darren McKinley of Lady Wallace Way, who was nominated to carry the torch by his sister Donna whom he supported through some difficult times when she was grieving for the loss of her children, has been raising money for charity over the years by running marathons.
