Carers IW was presented with a cheque for £1,970 following a Stars In Their Eyes-themed event, held in early November at the Riverside Centre in Newport.

Elizabeth Martin Carers IW, ‘The show is well worth going to, I had an amazing time. A huge thank you to all the performers and the team behind the scenes. This donation will support our charity and consequently our Island Carers, thank you.’
