Charity speaks out in light of Afghan crisis
A local charity's calling on the Government to offer more than just money in the wake of the pending Afghan refugee crisis.
Christian Aid co-coordinator Louise Whitelegg believes the Island should open its doors to help those fleeing the Taliban.
She says she recognizes that while there's reluctance to do so amongst some of the Manx population, the Isle of Man's in a position to make a difference to someone's life:
