Two local charities have received donations raised at a banking annual dinner.

Wooden Spoon Isle of Man and the Manx MSA Trust each received £770 thanks to the Isle of Man Bankers' Association and the Island's branch of the London Institute of Banking and Finance.

All money raised from the annual event stays on the Island, and is this year spent helping disabled and disadvantaged young people and those with MSA.

Chris Till, IOMBA President, says they're pleased to be able to support two worthy causes.
