Charlie Hurst says he felt sad after learning not everyone has enough food
A local schoolboy has given some of his Christmas money to a not-for-profit group after discovering some Manx residents rely on food donations.
Ten-year-old Charlie Hurst also took part in a sponsored read, and his parents matched his donation, raising a total of £80 for Isle of Man Community Meals.
The project relies on public donations, and has worked to ensure those impacted by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic have enough to eat.
Charlie and his mum Jackie Hannay-Hurst explain how he raised the funds:
