Volunteers needed for Easter Festival

Organisers of the Easter Athletics Festival urgently require volunteers and marshals.

The Easter weekend event begins with Good Friday evening's 10K run in Port Erin at 5.30pm, when almost 300 athletes are expected to take part.

For Easter Saturday's Peel Hill race, help is needed in the morning to flag the course, as well as marshals for the race in the afternoon.

On Easter Day morning, the action moves to Douglas Promenade where help is required from 9.15am to mark the course and then marshals for the races from 10.15am.

Full instructions and marshals bibs will be provided.
