A man from Newry is getting ready for his 31st consecutive year of taking part in a charity sit-out to raise funds for a local hospice.
John Dalzell OBE, 80, will celebrate his 81st birthday the same way he has done for the past 31 years, by sitting in his trailer on Hill Street fundraising for Southern Area Hospice.
For over 30 years, John has dedicated his time to sitting out in a trailer and collecting money for the hospice in the run up to Christmas, usually in the coldest weather when almost everyone else is buying and wrapping presents.
