The sit out will start on Monday, December 1 and will run until Christmas Eve.

Davy will be doing Fridays and Saturdays this year, but he is keen to stress that he needs helpers: “I was unable to do any of the sit out last year due to ill health,” told Davy, who has raised £440,000 for charity since he started. “This year I need volunteers for two shifts - 9am to 1.30pm, and then from 1.30 to 5.30 Monday to Thursday.

“I know that those who helped out last year all enjoyed their time beside the churn.”

If you would like to help contact Davy or Denis McNeill. Names will be put into a hat and selected at random.

So far this year Davy has already raised £8,000, he hopes to raise £30,000.

In a new fund raiser this year, Davy wants to make a chain around the town hall with those taking part wearing Christmas jumpers! This event will take place on Saturday. December 20, he is asking those taking part to donate £5.
