Malaria ordeal inspires Denise to live on £1 a day

A youth worker who almost died from malaria after volunteering in west Africa is to try and live on £1 a day to raise awareness of how cheap it is to combat the disease.

Denise Donnelly, from Coalisland, Co Tyrone took up the anti-poverty campaign after being inspired by thoughts of dying children while undergoing lifesaving treatment herself in hospital.
