Haemochromatosis Awareness Week runs from 1 July-7 July
Efforts are underway to raise awareness for a condition which only affects around 300 people on the Isle of Man.
Today marks the start of Haemochromatosis Awareness Week.
The inherited condition causes iron levels in the body to slowly build up over many years; symptoms can include fatigue, depression and joint pain.
