Police join dip fun

Police have raised hundreds of pounds for charity by taking part in one of the island's New Year traditions.

A group of officers took to the water on January 1 in the Douglas New Year Dip.

They were raising funds for Manx Cancer Help in memory Seargeant Andy Pailor, who died from cancer in 2015.

In total, the uniformed officers raised £750.

A huge thank you to all who donated. We have raised in the region of £750 for @ManxCancerHelp Here a just a couple of photos to prove we did it. #charity #Cancer #IOMPolice pic.twitter.com/x1Jx7u5sON
