In appreciation of the care given to their daughter over the eight short years of her life, the family of Lucy Parke have made a donation of toys, games and staffroom equipment to the Children's Ward at Daisy Hill Hospital in Newry. Lucy died in January this year.

Making the donation to some of the staff at the Daisy Children and Young People’s Unit are Lucy’s parents David and Stephanie Parke and siblings Jake, Jenny and Ben.

The donation in memory of their daughter will help brighten the lives of other children attending the Children's Ward in the future.

As her family explains "Lucy was a patient and friend to the staff of the Children’s Ward at Daisy Hill Hospital."

Lucy was born with Progeria, a life limiting condition and the family have praised the excellent care from the staff at Daisy Hill over the eight years of her life.
