Hundreds of people are being invited to dash across Peel promenade later this summer...dressed as dinosaurs.

The organisers of the 'world's largest unofficial T-rex run', which took place on Douglas promenade last year, have announced they're taking the event out west.

So-called 'T-Fest' is the brainchild of Expedition Limitless, which is aiming to raise £200,000 in support of The Children’s Centre and Rebecca House Children’s Hospice.

Last year the group's efforts saw £111,000 donated to Manx Mencap.

Siobhán Fletcher caught up with Team Leader Martin Malone to find out more about the festival - and a major challenge he'll be taking on in September!

Did you know 70% of people with dementia will go missing at least once?

A scheme that encourages carers, family and friends to provide useful information, which could then be used in the event of a vulnerable person going missing, is to be launched here on the Isle of Man.

Named for George Herbert - a war veteran of the Normandy landings who had dementia and sadly died whilst he was missing - the 'Herbert Protocol' initiative is gaining popularity across the British Isles.

It will officially be launched here next Tuesday 1 July (11am-2pm) during an event in Strand Street, Douglas.

Siobhán Fletcher spoke to Gemma Wild from the charity, and Crime Prevention/Design Out Crime Officer Sarah Williams to find out more.
