A number of services normally delivered at Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital are being temporarily relocated while Manx Care continues to deal with a pest control problem there.

The healthcare provider says the work coincides with the completion of pest control measures at Martin Ward, which has been closed since October.

It includes a comprehensive deep cleaning and inspection programme, along with other structural improvements.

Amy Griffiths has been finding out more from Chief Executive Teresa Cope:

A Manx woman hopes her business can help provide a community to women on the Isle of Man who've suffered hair loss.

Megan Coulthurst runs Embrace Wigs, a wig shop which also provides consultations to those trying to find the best fit for them.

She has alopecia herself, and lost her hair three years ago.

Megan has been telling Amy Griffiths why she wanted to start the business:

Douglas Council is planning to sell 35 social housing properties which require 'significant investment' to the private market.

The local authority says it has met with the tenants on Falcon Cliff Terrace and Marathon Drive who will be affected and is operating with a 'tenants first' policy.

It's confirmed that each house will be sold individually to avoid them being 'swept up' by a developer, and this will start with six vacant homes in the next few weeks.

Leader of Douglas Council Devon Watson says the money from the sales will be ring fenced for future social housing developments in the city.
