More than £15k raised by patrons
The total amount raised for charity by patrons of the Old Market Inn surpassed £15,000 this year, as they presented two cheques to good causes last night.
The Southern 100 Supporters Club and the Friends of the Hyperbaric Chamber both received donations of a thousand pounds.
A celebration took place in the Douglas pub yesterday where the organisations placed on record their sincere thanks to those who'd helped raise the funds.
Chairman of the Southern 100 George Peach explained what the money would go towards:
