  • STORIES FROM THE SEA 2025

AT YOUR SERVICE:

  • AT YOUR SERVICE - Have YOU discovered The Prom Space? We're going there today!

    When it re-opened after the time of Covid, and Island-wide church closures, the Promenade Methodist Church in Douglas formed a Working Party of church members, to forensically examine all aspects of church life - its purpose, its finances and most importantly its future - they asked some searching questions, and even considered whether the best stewardship would be to sell the site, re-invest the proceeds in other Methodist church ministries, and form a new worshipping community elsewhere.But after much research, talking and listening it was agreed that the church on the Prom should remain - a beacon of hope - its illuminated cross visible from the ferries coming into Douglas harbour - but its outreach should now be re-shaped to meet the needs of today's local community.And so The Prom Space was born - same church - but with a new purpose! And on today's programme, two members of that Working Party - Stephanie Gray and Amanda Walker - talk about the past, the present and the future - at The Prom Space!There's also a mention of Holocaust Memorial Day on 28th January, commemorated by a special programme here on Manx Radio as part of our Island Life series of programmes, presented by Siobhan Fletcher at 5:30pm on 28/1/25 and available afterwards as a podcast.

THE CHARLES GUARD SERIES

  • Giles Job relives childhood memories of Derby Castle

    Giles Job lived in the Derby Castle Hotel as a child in the late 1940s. At the time the building was divided into two apartments and he and his family lived in one of them.
    On a recent visit to the Isle of Man he took the opportunity to talk to Charles Guard about his memories of the living there, including anecdotes about the Derby Castle theatre, the dance hall and the underground maze of cellars and passages that he explored as a young boy.
