Marcus Thornton set to travel next week
A local man who is getting ready to drive to the Ukrainian border says he's 'in awe' of the Manx community's response to the ongoing conflict.
Next week Marcus Thornton will leave the Isle of Man with two vans full of aid and, along with some friends, will make the journey to Poland.
After appealing for donations from the public he's collected clothing, medical supplies, toiletries and children's toys.
Cash donations will also be put to good use when they reach Poland.
Marcus told Manx Radio he's been overwhelmed by the response:
'Pressure in the system' but bed figures are wrong says Manx Care
Work permits 'form part of longer-term plan' says Johnston
First Deemster and Clerk of Rolls appointed to senior roles
Mother's Day recognition for women who ‘shape our community’
