LITTLE WINGS FLYING FROM LISMORE

An angel flight landed in Lismore this afternoon to ferry some very precious cargo down south.

Three-year-old Emily Kirkland became the first patient to be transferred from Lismore to Sydney by the charity, Little Wings – a service connecting sick regional children to the big cities for specialist medical treatment.

“Huge difference cost wise as well it’s all free of charge so it’s not costing us a cent so it’s a huge benefit.”

But to keep the free service operating from Lismore, Little Wings needs a helping hand of its own.

The charity is now calling for donations.

“It’s 100% volunteer the pilots volunteer, they volunteer the plane as well.”

Donations can be made at www.littlewings.org.au
