MANX NEWSCAST: 

  • 'We want to provide a facility for almost anybody'

    'We want to provide a facility for almost anybody'.That's the message from two women who are hoping to keep Ballafesson Church Hall open for the local, and wider, community. Maureen Dadd and Pat Harper, from Friends of Ballafesson Community, have one year to make the hall viable otherwise it will be sold on the open market. Mrs Dadd and Mrs Harper say the group is looking to start a programme of events and is open to ideas from local groups.They add the chapel is closed and has issued a 'cease to meet' - but the hall is still in use.Currently the Friends of Ballafesson Community has organised coffee mornings and jumble sales - but is hoping to expand into hotpot nights, soup lunches and concerts with Manx bands.Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to Maureen and Pat:

AGENDA: 

  • Agenda 8.6.26 - renewable energy ay Andreas Airfield

    Renewable energy firm IPV Flexgen will be hosting a public consultation at Andreas Parish Hall on Wednesday between 10.00am and 7.00pm to share updated proposals for the redevelopment of Andreas Airfield. This farmer led project includes agricultural growing units, an Anaerobic Digestor plant, ground mounted solar PV and battery storage to provide the site with electricity and heat. Could this project develop into a sustainable energy scheme that most people can get behind? IPV Flexgen claims to be paving the way for a more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient future for farming. Let’s hope they’re right.

    Ramsey Cottage Hospital's future, Andreas Airfield consultation, Half Way Horse Trams go up in price, Douglas play areas, moving patients with dementia, maintaining public buildings & Dublin flights to continue. It’s Mannin Line with Andy Wint - Wednesday 10th June 2026

PERSPECTIVE:

  • Perspective 7.6.26 - the health of Manx Care, the Minister gives her diagnosis.

    Manx Care’s mission is to become the best small Island health and social care system in the world. An ambitious aspiration but few people would argue against it I imagine. That said, despite a substantial uplift in funding, Manx Care seems some distance away from its aspiration, and incapable of sticking to the budget set for it. So what’s going wrong and how do we cure Manx Care’s ailments. The Minister gives her diagnosis on Perspective. Can we really have the world’s best health service without draining precious resources from the rest of Isle of Man Government? It’s a big ask.

MANX RADIO SPORT:

  • Jade Burden - Title fight back on and fired up for the occasion

    Back in April of this year, Isle of Man professional boxer, Jade Burden was due to take part in her first ever title fight in the UK.However, at short notice, the event itself was cancelled, leaving the Island competitor in a tough place and considering her future in the sport.But since then, things have changed - the showdown has since been rescheduled to Saturday, 13 June and will see Burden face Katie Smith for the Commonwealth Silver Super Featherweight title in Bolton.With the fire inside rekindled, we've been catching up with Jade ahead of this weekend's fight to find out what it would mean to hear to bring a belt back to the Isle of Man, and also how she's coped with the challenges of the last few months since the original date was called off

JOURNEY TO A DREAM:

  • The Biker Mums - Catriona McIntosh Thomson & Jayne Simpson

    Not every journey to a dream starts on the Mountain Course - and not every hero in the paddock wears leathers.In this episode of Journey to a Dream, the spotlight shifts to two important people behind the scenes: the biker mums.Catriona McIntosh Thomson and Jayne Simpson are known around the paddock as the mums of Grant Thomson and Marcus Simpson, but their role in road racing goes far beyond that.They talk openly with Beth about what it’s like when your child chooses road racing, the nerves that never quite go away, the early mornings, the overflowing trophy cabinets and the unwavering support it takes to help someone else chase a dream.Honest, funny, and relatable, this episode is a reminder that while riders take to the course alone, they never get there on their own.You can listen back to the previous JTAD podcasts with Grant here and with Marcus here, and they both also took part in the first ever Journey to a Dream Live from the Queen's.It would great if you could follow the riders on social media - your support makes such a difference. Grant is on Facebook and Instagram and you can find Marcus on Facebook and Instagram too. You can find details about their supporters clubs here too.And if you'd like to get in touch with Beth, you can email bethespey@manxradio.com
