Charlotte Traynor is keen to work with the city's wider community
The new Douglas councillor for the central ward hopes to try and support the 'most vulnerable' residents in her new role.
Charlotte Traynor joined the local authority in an uncontested by-election last month and says she surprised herself by becoming a member.
She adds that she would like to make sure small businesses and producers are 'supported' and is keen to work with the city's wider community.
Ms Traynor hopes her background working with homeless charities and the Bail and Probation service will assist with the council's operations.
