Difficulties facing Islanders outlined
Union officials say the reliance of many on the Island’s foodbank is a real eye-opener.
Unite last month donated £4,000 to the organisation.
It will be split across the north, east, south and west of the Island to help those struggling to make ends meet.
Chairman Debbie Halsall says the Island is not immune to problems facing many parts of the UK:
Taxi fares on the Island to rise
RTLC determines maximum fares to be charged later this month
Weather causes changes to today's sailing schedule
Some services cancelled while Larne crossings pushed back 24 hours
Kewaigue closure in place this weekend for manhole replacement
Manx Utilities says a further closure will be needed next weekend
