AN evening in memory of Robert Kneale was held recently at Morton Hall in Castletown.

Mr Kneale, a motorcyclist, was killed in a traffic incident at the Fairy Bridge during TT 2011.

Headlined by the popular Phantoms group, the night raised £1,720 which has been split between the Southern 100 Helicopter Fund and the Manx Grand Prix Supporters' Club, which provides funds for the helicopter for the MGP - two causes Robert supported throughout his life.

The organisers Muriel Cooil and the family of Robert wish to record their appreciation to all who attended and bought raffle tickets for the numerous prizes donated.

Muriel and Robert's family would also like to thank the committee of the Morton Hall for all their help, Jimmy Maddocks and The Phantoms for their wonderful music.

They would also like to thank Nobby Clarke, Paul Kennaugh and Wayne Barnsby for providing 'special' items for the auction and to Tony Brown for designing and supplying the flyers to publicise the evening.
