The Island's Chamber of Commerce has set up a forum for businesses who have questions about financial support over Coronavirus.

It comes after Treasury Minister, Alf Cannan MHK, announced £100million worth of new packages to support organisations and individuals affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

It's been created with the assistance of ELS Isle of Man and Chamber says it means it will help them collate the queries people may have so they can be sent to the government in an orderly manner.

For those wanting to use the service, a link to the portal is here.
