It's not just about providing bed says board chair
Government support for homeless people on the Isle of Man, cost nearly two hundred thousand pounds in the first three months of this year.
Information revealed in response to a House of Keys question shows that equates to around three thousand bed nights.
Since the charity Graih closed their shelter in 2022, the Housing and Communities Board has taken responsibility.
Its chair, David Ashford, says it's often not just a question of providing a bed:
