Ai Services has announced the name of the prize winners.
They are: 1, Mr Gerard McGlone from Clogher; 2, Mr Seamus Quinn from Ardboe; 3, Mr W Hill from Tandragee; 4, Mr Steven Houston from Glarryford; 5, Mr T Boyd from Larne; 6, Miss Niamh Jones from Dungannon; 7, Mr James Thompson from Ballycastle; 8, Mr Adam Crawford from Ballygowan.
Commenting on the tremendous success of the fund raising initiative, Ai Services’ Ivan Minford said: “Everyone involved with the campaign is absolutely delighted with the amount of money raised. I would like to thank everyone who bought ballot tickets and, of course, our sponsors, without whose generosity we would not have been able to offer such an exciting range of prizes.”
Ivan concluded: “Special thanks must also go to all of the Ai Services technicians and office staff, who put so much time and effort in over the past number of months. They are a tremendous group of people.”
