Local woman's New Year challenge in memory of her Mum

A local woman is taking on a New Year's challenge in memory of her Mum.

Connie Watson sadly lost her Mum to breast cancer in April this year, and has been raising money for the Manx Breast Cancer Support Group, as they've been a big help to her family.

Tomorrow morning, Connie and a group of friends and family will climb Snaefell and then head straight to Laxey to take part in the New Year's Dip. 

Since last year's dip, she has raised over £6,500 altogether, and you can donate via her GoFundMe page. 

Anyone wishing to join the challenge can meet the group at the Bungalow at 9:30am tomorrow.
