Island charity to shut down

An Island charity says its shutting its doors for good later this month.

Live At Home Isle of Man, based in Laxey, has written to its service users saying it can't afford to go on.

The organisation, which provides help for people to live independently, says it'll close for good on August 28.

It says it's been looking at options to continue with reduced services, but it wouldn't be feasible to carry on without a definite source of funding.
