A cancer charity on the Isle of Man has benefited from the latest craze sweeping social media.
Manx Cancer Help says it’s noticed a spike in donations over the last week thanks to the ‘no makeup selfie’ trend.
Women have been taking to Facebook and Twitter to post a picture of themselves barefaced, making a donation to charity and then nominating their friends to do the same.
Yesterday Cancer Research UK – which didn’t start the movement - reported over £2 million of donations within 48 hours.
Andrea Chambers is the chief executive of Manx Cancer Help – she says some people are choosing to donate locally:
Society appeals for help about traditional gypsy caravans on the Island
Government issues bird flu warning after infected buzzard found
Will new UK law be brought in to protect Manx renters from mould?
