Shine A Light was set up 15 years ago by Billy McCrory and focuses on improving the quality of life of young children diagnosed with cancer. The charity aims to organise trips and treats to lift a child’s spirits while undergoing treatment and to give them something to look forward to when all the treatment has finished.

Year 9 pupils from Larne Grammar raised a whopping £1641.72 for this worthy cause.
