A group of Isle of Wight prison service will take on police staff in a charity rugby match in aid of Islander Luke Orton, who suffered a life changing injury last year.
The event is hoping to raise funds to support Luke, who was a player at Sandown and Shanklin Rugby Club before he suffered a life-changing injury in July.
Luke suffered a catastrophic neck injury while playing in a beach rugby tournament at Ryde.
His family are in the midst of a significant project to convert the family home to give Luke a living space and to bring him home from hospital.
The money raised at the charity event will go towards helping the family with these costs.

Bar and food will be available at the charity event, with raffle tickets available before and at the match for £5 per strip of five tickets.
