The IoM Chamber of Commerce wants to see everyone getting out safely and spending money.
That is the latest from the Isle of Man Chamber of Commerce in response to last week's launch of the COVID-19 Winter disruption Scheme.
The Chamber said it is grateful to the Manx government for acting swiftly, adding that the grant scheme has come "just in time", ahead of a bleak Christmas and New Year.
However, CEO Rebecca George is concerned some emerging sectors are still missing out.
"What we would like to see now is everyone safely getting out and spending at their favourite local shops, cafes, gyms, hairdressers, beauticians, yoga class, bars, pet care providers, restaurants and markets to give businesses a boost," she continued.
