Vulnerable people on the Isle of Man are being urged to find out more about the help available to them in the run up to Christmas.
The Department of Home Affairs has organised an awareness day and invited more than 15 charities, services and organisations to give advice.
It says whilst Christmas can be a 'joyous' time of year for some it can be a time filled with loneliness, self-reflection, anxiety and even violence for others.
The event on December 13th will provide information on homelessness, depression and domestic abuse as well as offering practical advice about staying safe, preventing crime and maintaining physical and mental wellbeing.
It will take place between 3pm and 7pm at Tromode House.
