Three friends to tackle western section of coastal footpath
Three friends are raising money for Hospice Isle of Man today by walking half of the Raad ny Foillan.
Andrew Bridson, Aaron Grist and Kevin Whittaker are setting off from the Point of Ayre at 8.30am and heading down the west coast of the Island, with the aim of making it to The Sound - a distance of around 51 miles.
The trio have set themselves a target of £500 to raise, with donations being taken via a JustGiving page.
Andrew explains why the Hospice was chosen:
Garff Commissioners hosting offshore windfarm drop in session today
No harbour basin work planned in Laxey this summer
Public invited to suggest new brownfield site for potential re-development
Anthony Allen re-elected as chair at Onchan Commissioners
Police urge public to check person's identification if claiming to be a police officer
