Manx Cancer Help Chief Executive Officer, Andrea Chambers, said: ‘Nancy has been supporting us for over 16 years and we are delighted to have one of her stunning paintings on our Christmas cards again this year.
‘We would like to thank the shops and outlets that have agreed to sell our cards, the proceeds of which raise vital funds to support our services. CIRCA Volunteer Services have been a fantastic help too, having once again packed our Christmas cards for us this year. As we are only a small team at Manx Cancer Help, this support from CIRCA really is invaluable to us.’
