A Douglas-based accountancy firm has lent a helping hand to the Manx SPCA.

15 members of staff from Grant Thornton were at the centre in Ard Jekyll to help with maintenance on their facilities, doing jobs such as painting and pressure washing the buildings.

Their Director, Richard Ratcliffe, says the work the charity does is 'inspirational' and the company is 'delighted' to offer them assistance.

The firm has been involved with a variety of local organisations as part of their Growing Together in the Community Scheme.
