Douglas Borough Council is making its daily Book of Remembrance available online.

It's one of the latest changes the authority is making to keep resources available during the lockdown measures on Island.

Currently, access to Douglas Borough Cemetery and Crematorium isn't allowed due to the restrictions.

To view the Book of Remembrance, officials say to visit douglas.gov.im - applications for entries for it as well as bronze memorial plaques are still open but won't be processed until the measures are lifted.
