Holocaust Memorial service cancelled

The Isle of Man’s annual National Holocaust Memorial service has been cancelled.

Organisers said the decision was not taken lightly and was made "in the interests of safety".

The service, which is organised each year by members of the local Jewish community, was due to take place on 30th January.

Over the years the event has brought together people of all ages and faiths to reflect on the causes of the Holocaust and genocide.

It's held alongside similar Holocaust Day commemorations throughout the British Isles.
