A team from Manx Utilities has been drafted to the UK to help restore power to homes in Cumbria.

It comes after Storm Arwen left thousands without power supplies in the UK. 

The UK Energy Networks Association described the destruction of electricity lines as the worst seen in Britain since 2005.

Manx Utilities said a team, six vehicles and six generators have been sent to help.
