The incredible legacy of Lucas Martin

Island resident Lucas Martin was just 21 when he died suddenly in September after contracting meningitis.
His family has launched a website, LookyMartin.com, which tells readers a bit more about Lucas, and has links to charities including Meningitis Now, and Organ Donation IOM.
Lucas was a donor with his organs going on to help people across the UK.
The family are ultimately going to set up a charity in Lucas' name, to help young people across the Isle of Man.
They're asking people to "give it LOADS" in his memory - to move through life with more Love, Optimism, Ambition, Determination and Selflessness - saying that's how Lucas conducted himself through his 21 years.
