Marcus Thornton set to travel next week
A local man who is getting ready to drive to the Ukrainian border says he's 'in awe' of the Manx community's response to the ongoing conflict.
Next week Marcus Thornton will leave the Isle of Man with two vans full of aid and, along with some friends, will make the journey to Poland.
After appealing for donations from the public he's collected clothing, medical supplies, toiletries and children's toys.
Cash donations will also be put to good use when they reach Poland.
Marcus told Manx Radio he's been overwhelmed by the response:
DoI working on Island wide review of disc parking
New catering operator sought for northern hospitality business
£1.2m allocated for new Border Division on Island
Government monitoring proposed business rate cuts announced in England
