Run or dye

Show your support for Islanders taking part in Run or Dye for Wessex Cancer Trust

OnTheWight reader Michelle Salisbury has been in touch with news of a fundraising event taking place this weekend.

She says a small team of women from the Island are taking part in the Run or Dye event in Southampton on Saturday. Michelle says that whatever is raised by the group from the Isle of Wight is being matched by Barclays Bank up to £1,000.
