Music and theatre community raises spirits and funds with song

Big Manx Community to benefit from fundraiser

Members of the Island's music and theatre community are aiming to raise spirits and funds to help those experiencing difficulties during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Big Manx Community has been set up to support those dealing with sickness, disability, mental health issues or social depravation.

Performers have filmed themselves singing 'Howard's Heroes', dedicated to those who have been helping other during the crisis.

Lisa Kriesky, one of the organisers of the project, explains how the funds will be used:
