Three local charities are to benefit from donations made by fans following the death of a rider at this year's Manx Grand Prix.

Emerald Road Racing magazine and roadracingsupporters.com have been collecting donations in memory of 20 year old newcomer Wayne Hamilton.

The Rob Vine Fund, the Southern 100 Helicopter Fund and the Manx Grand Prix Supporters Club will each receive £300.

The cheques have been sent out today.

Donations are still being taken via the road racing supporters website.
