A book of poetry has been put together by a Castletown woman to raise funds for the UK hospital which twice operated on her spine.
Brenda Brown says she felt the need to give something back to the surgeons and medical staff who treated her, so has written Sounds of the Sea.

Mrs Brown says the work it does is very important (audio file attached):
