Staff at fruit and vegetable business Robinsons raised £1,500 for the Manx Breast Cancer Support Group in a month of activities.

The fundraiser included the donation of 2,000 masks for patients travelling to appointments in the UK.

Janna Horsthuis, the managing director, said: ’Robinsons supports many local charities and the Manx Breast Cancer Support Group, along with all of them, are absolutely vital to our island.

’Donating masks - with the help of Vannin Healthcare - and antibacterial sanitiser has been helped to make a difference not just for breast cancer patients but all cancer patients travelling to the UK for essential treatment, so we were very glad to help.’
