Harry, from Glenarm, is in Bristol, England, for a bone marrow transplant as part of his treatment for leukaemia, with he and his family expecting to spend up to six months there.
The working day took place last Saturday (5 March) at Clare Glen near Tandragee.

On the day, 30 tractors took turns to load and spread manure, then plough, grub and disc the two fields, which were kindly provided by Mark Trimble.
Mark’s family and friends also provided the excellent catering on site too.
The cultivating was finished by 2pm and organiser, Sam Neill, led the tractors on a scenic 18-mile road run around the many by-lanes of the Clare district.
Tea was then provided again for all who participated on the tractor run.
