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:
Funding of government services 'not sustainable'
Douglas Council object to DoI plans for temporary parking on Summerland site
Surgeon announces he's standing in General Election
'Bridging the care gap' focus of World Parkinson's Day
