A mile for Sport Relief is the challenge facing WI members from the West Wight, this Friday.

Around 50 women are embracing the charity event, by walking from Yarmouth car park to the End of the Line café in Freshwater.  Meanwhile, BBC Radio Solent presenter Steve Harris will include the Island in his bid to run 24 miles in 24 hours, for Sport Relief. His challenge will see him travel through Dorset and Hampshire as well as to Ryde, over 24 hours. It will culminate during his show between 4pm and 7pm, on Friday evening.
