An Isle of Man charity is looking to give a new lease of life to a disabled boy in The Gambia.
The Mannin Africa charity wants to raise £3,500 for an all-terrain wheelchair for 10-year-old Ebrima Jobe - who has been unable to walk since birth.
Having spent all of his life indoors - he also suffers from learning difficulties but is able to understand verbal instructions.
Fams Camara lives in Kirk Michael but is originally from the African country - he met the youngster when he was there overseeing sanitation construction works:
