Veterans to make Island return

A group of ex-armed forces veterans who sustained life-changing injuries while serving in the line of duty will return to the Island next month.

It's down to support from the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company - which supports 'Let's Do Veterans Support' - an Island-registered charity.

It helps individuals come to terms with injuries and disabilities such as loss of limbs, limited vision, partial paralysis, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). 

It has been bringing veterans to the Isle of Man since 2014 to experience the thrill of the island’s motorcycling races.

This year, a group of six motorcycling-fanatics will return for the Southern 100 International Road Races free of charge, which will take place around the Billown Circuit from 8th to 11th July.
