Cost of living crisis: Meeting to be held next week

A public meeting about the cost of living crisis is being held on the Isle of Man next week.

It's being hosted by the Liberal Vannin party and takes place at the Manx Legion Club on Monday.

The meeting comes after the Manx government unveiled a support package to help locals deal with rising costs. 

The meeting's set to discuss whether the government's doing enough and identify groups which may fall through the net.

Organisers say if you're concerned about heating your home, paying for petrol and putting food on the table, it's your chance to put your questions to those in power.

Panellists include Treasury minister, Dr Alex Allinson, MHK Claire Christian, Neal Mellon from the Isle of Man Foodbank, Douglas Councillor, Frank Schuengel and Director for Housing Matters. Don Bailey.
