Danny Quigley gets Freedom of the City

Danny Quigley said receiving the Freedom of the City will spur him on to continue working to promote awareness of mental health and suicide prevention. Mr Quigley said becoming a Freeman was also a moment he will forever treasure following the special ceremony at the Guildhall on Monday. The huge honour means the endurance athlete joins a small and distnguished list of recipents including former Bishops of Derry, the late Most Rev Dr Edward Daly, and the Most Rev Dr James Mehaffey; Dr. Tom McGinley, of the Foyle Hospice, Nobel Laureate John Hume and Derry City’s treble winning manager Jim McLaughlin.
