Power 'in your hands' says DEC
The Island's 16 to 18-year-olds have more power than they might think, according a new information booklet being circulated to schools ahead of September's General Election.
It urges teenagers to join the electoral register and vote, in order to shape the issues that affect them daily.
Joel Smith from the Department of Education and Children, which authored the publication, said more young people should use their voice:
Festival of Motoring 'dream rides' take place today
Cars will be on Douglas Promenade between 12pm and 3pm
Drop-in session offers support for households ahead of rising winter costs
Support service says finances will be stretched for some over the coming months
Number of bus services 'at risk' today
No reason given by Bus Vannin
Check in advance which polling stations are accessible
Voters can now use any in their constituency
