Olympian teams-up with Post Office for charity

Sir Chris Hoy has lent his blessing - and his autograph - to the latest set of Isle of Man Post Office commemorative stamps.

The cycling superstar visited the Island last week as part of the inaugural ISLEXPO event at the Villa Marina.

He also signed 500 limited edition Team GB stamp sets for the Post Office, which are being released ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games in August.

A percentage of the stamps' sales will also be donated to a Scottish mental health charity - the choice of Sir Chris.
