Committee members from the Isle of Man Relay For Life team have been honoured at a special reception at the House of Lords.
The team received a 'Flame of Hope' Award in London in recognition of the work and fundraising that's been done.
The 24-hour walking relay events take place across the UK - the Island has participated in seven so far.
In that time fundraisers have raised more than £400,000 for Cancer Research UK - £78,000 was collected at this year's event with the final figure still to be declared.
Nicola Walkingshaw is a committee member and organiser - she says this recognition is important:
DOI has no junction safety concerns over Iceland plans
LegCo to face questions in this morning's sitting
Passport prices to rise
House of Keys to sit for final time before election
Island cyclist to ride in Tour De France
