Across the Island, enthusiastic fundraisers are finding wildly different ways to help local charities.
The ladies of Baldrine Women's Institute (pictured) recently organised a Wine and Cheese Evening, all proceeds from which were pledged to Hospice Isle of Man.
The evening was well-supported and a great success, with a total of £600 being raised.
Meanwhile, two participants in this year's Parish Walk turned their road miles into a real boost for both Hospice and the local branch of Anti-Cancer.
Caroline Clague and Remo Ricciardi handed over their cheques to fundraising team members Carole Whitfield and Frances Moore.
