This page has been set up in memory of Lucia Porter, a beautiful young girl who tragically lost her life in a car accident on the Switchback Road, Peel, Isle of Man.

She was a very bubbly and energetic character who never failed to make anyone smile and will be sadly missed by all her friends and family.

We want to raise funds for this wonderful charity who have been with us from the begininng giving us the support and advice that we need, whenever we need it.

Victim Support Isle of Man is an independent organisation supporting victims of crime.In addition fundraising takes place locally and all monies raised   goes to the victims. However, they are in need of increasing funds to cope with increasing demands on their service.

It is independent of both the Department and the Isle of Man Constabulary although many of its clients are referred by the police.

The work of Victim Support Isle of Man includes assisting with criminal injury claims plus providing emotional support for victims of various offences including physical or sexual assaults, thefts, burglaries and criminal damage. They also support the families of people involved in fatal road collisions.

Their Witness Support volunteers provide moral support to people who are required to give evidence in court hearings. Many people who seek assistance from Victim Support Isle of Man are referred by the police but people can also approach them directly. Some people receive emotional support for traumatic experiences many years after the event.

We hope to set up many fundraising events throughout the years to come in memory of Lucia and any donations received would be greatly appreciated so that we can help support families who may find themselves in the same situation as us and many other families that have been through the same/similar thing.
