Charities grateful and seeking more support
It's the start of the annual Manx Volunteers Week (Mon).
The 5-day event is supported by over twenty Island-based charities, whose efforts rely on unpaid work.
The week will culminate in a major recruitment fair at Tynwald Mills this Saturday (5th Mar).
Alison Lester from the Volunteer Organising Committee explained what it's all about:
Treasury working with banks to offer appointments to MiCard users
The service will end at the end of the year
Changes to religious education 'about religious literacy, not promoting any particular religion'
New bill would remove the need for religious education to be "wholly or mainly Christian"
'No conservation advantage' to introducing red squirrels on Island
Manx Wildlife Trust warns the species could have a detrimental impact on the Island's ecosystem
Manx Youth Orchestra set to return to Villa Marina for Christmas concert
Around 150 young musicians to perform seasonal music and new compositions
