A brave Donegal tot has been introduced as the newest Honorary Garda in Donegal.

Danny McLaughlin, aged one and a half, from Trentagh, graduated as a Little Blue Hero with An Garda Síochána yesterday.

The Little Blue Hero charity programme helps gardaí support children in their communities who are undergoing long-term medical treatment for critical illness.

Danny was born with an inoperable brain tumour and gets round-the-clock care from his amazing family, as well as nurses.

Danny and his twin brother Charlie enjoyed a very special day yesterday as they were treated to an impressive display by new front line colleagues including the fire service, coast guard service and ambulance personnel.

Honorary Garda Danny was presented with his certificate by Sergeant Gráinne Mc Loone and Sergeant Charlene Anderson.

“A massive congratulations to you Danny!,” said a spokesperson for An Garda Síochána Donegal.

“We would like to thank everyone who helped to organise and who attended the graduation.”
