Charity to open new shop and community space

Thursday, 2 March 2023 07:24

A local charity is set to open a new shop and community space in Douglas.

Crossroads Isle of Man will have a new space in Tynwald Street, and hope to have an official opening date soon.

A spokesperson says it will initially be a space for people to use a warm and welcoming environment, but hope to eventually have dedicated sessions for carers.

As a result, the charity is looking for donations of items such as mugs, plates and cutlery.

If anyone would like to help or donate money, you can get in touch via the Crossroads Isle of Man Facebook page.
