A CHARITY challenge will see Isle of Wight emergency crews make a getaway from the Isle of Wight — to see how far they can get.

The Blue Light Breakout will take place on September 12, when teams of two off-duty members from the fire service, police and ambulance service will compete to see who can make it the furthest off the Island in 50 hours.

With zero planning, and zero money, who's your money on?

Islanders can pick their favourite team in return for a donation. Proceeds will go to Isle of Wight brain tumour charity, the Wight Brainy Bunch.

To donate, text your team code, plus the amount you would like to donate — for example, FIREIOW 10 — to 70085.

The codes are FIREIOW, POLICEIOW and AMBIOW.

Donations can also be made online at
