The Vectis Historic Vehicle Club Ltd were pleased to present Kathryn Grimes £1,000 at Arreton Barns. The £1,000 was raised at the club’s open day held at Arreton Barns on July 7, where classic cars from many Island clubs attended despite the early rain.

Kathryn thanked the members attending the presentation for their support, which she said was a great surprise. The Wight Brainy Bunch was set up by Mark Grimes and his wife Kathryn following Marks diagnosis of a brain tumour in February 2015.

Realising that very little funding is received for research into brain tumours; following Marks surgery in April 2015, they embarked on a series of fund-raising events to benefit the charity, which provides emotional support and financial assistance to Island families affected by brain tumours.
