UCM creates 250 sets of scrubs for healthcare workers

University College Isle of Man has made 250 sets of colourful scrubs for Manx healthcare workers.

They've been made by a team of staff and volunteers; some of whom are professionals in the fashion industry and the project is funded by UCM.

The colours of these scrubs were carefully chosen to reflect  skills and values of the Island's healthcare workers:  peach for compassion, yellow for hope, red for strength, green for safety, purple for wisdom, blue for faith and brown for security.

The scrubs will be distributed across the Department of Health and Social Care.
