President’s Charity 2026 Presentation

President Dan Dempsey presented a cheque for £4,000, to N.I. Air Ambulance, his nominated Charity, on behalf of all NIBA Club members, at their operations base near the Maze, Lisburn today.

(Pictured with President Dan are Kerry Anderson (Head of Fundraising for NI Air Ambulance), Heather Elliott (Castle Bowling Club), Treasurer Michael Waterman and Honorary Secretary Tom Evans).

Kerry thanked Dan and all Club members for their generous contribution towards such a vital & worthy service.

NI Air Ambulance has flown nearly 6000 missions, that’s around 60 each month, covers 100% of Northern Ireland, airborne within 5 minutes and arriving on scene anywhere within 25 minutes. This service needs £3 million of funding each year.

President Dan was delighted to invite Heather to assist with the presentation after she raised monies through crocheting and selling turtle’s, see below.
