A local athlete will climb the equivalent of Mount Everest this weekend in aid of two Island causes.
On Saturday (February 29), Danny Roberts will climb up from Laxey beach to the top of Snaefell 14 times to raise money for REACH IOM and Huntington's Disease Isle of Man.
Mr Roberts is hoping to raise £5,000 from his efforts to be split between the two organisations.
Those wanting to support his mission can donate to his JustGiving page which is available on our website.
