Peter Mckenna from Co Monaghan has been selected as our Local Hero of the Week.

Peter has went above and beyond over the years to raise money for numerous charities.

The local man  recently completed a 145km Endurance Challenge for Monaghan Special Olympics and St Dympna’s Faith & Light, Tydavnet.

Peter was nominated by a number of people including his proud daughter Lauren who told Northern Sound: “Anyone who knows dad knows that he is always doing something for someone. He just has that nature about him and constantly goes above and beyond for people.”

Jodie Curran spoke with both Lauren and Peter on today’s Wider View.
