Graih thankful for support after theft

Surge in donations

A quantity of cash stolen from a Douglas charity earlier this month has been 'more than recouped' thanks to a public appeal.

Thieves made off with around £50 in petty cash from homeless shelter Graih's offices on Broadway over the Easter weekend.

Police are still investigating the incident.

News of the theft prompted a surge in donations, which staff at Graih say has surpassed the amount lost.

Co-ordinator Michael Manning said the charity was 'very grateful' for the support.
