Niall Turley, from Culchie Comps, the online competition company facilitating the fundraiser, said: “It was a busy four days, but lovely to be able to chat with people about the competition as usually, our sales are all online.
So many people said it’s worthy to keep the helicopter flying, we hope to sell many more tickets before the draw date.”
