Southern hub of main Douglas branch
A second food bank for the Island is being launched today.
The facility in Port Erin, described as a southern 'satellite hub' of the main branch in Douglas, is to be run from the town's Methodist Church.
It will be used for distribution and collection only - anyone who feels they may need to access the service is asked to contact the organisation directly.
Director Neal Mellon says it's been established in response to a surge in demand:

Manannan is operating on three engines, leading to delays
Delays expected on A1 as road repairs continue at Crosby Rise
Higher temperatures prompt delays to resurfacing work
Treasury rejects medical society’s criticism of proposed NHS levy
Alex Allinson thinks IOMMS has the 'wrong end of the stick', as consultation continues on funding future health care provision
