Charity to extend school holiday scheme thanks to grant

A local charity plans to extend its school holiday scheme thanks to a £76,000 grant.

Manx Mencap works to improve opportunities for the learning disability community, and held sessions during the summer holidays in partnership with Autism for Mann.

With the funding, the charity plans to now extend the scheme to all school holidays and add several new activities. 

The grant was from the Manx Lottery Trust's 2023 Community Awards Thematic Fund, 'Empowering Young People.'
