Snaefell sleepover generates funds - and fun

by isleofman.com 15th June 2014

Sixty people have spent the night sleeping under the stars on Snaefell mountain, raising thousands of pounds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
After a celebration supper at the summit last night, supporters zipped-up on the slopes for a few hours sleep in cold, damp and misty conditions.
It's the charity's biggest event this year and monies raised will be split between Breakthrough's research fund and the appeal for a breast unit at Noble's hospital.
Organisers have thanks sponsors Swagelock and the Island's civil defence volunteers for their support.
Breakthrough's Angie Aire says the mass outdoor sleepover was a big success:
