One World Centre and Christian Aid have collections
Two separate collections, aiming to help refugees in the current Europe-wide crisis, have been started in the island.
One World Centre and Christian Aid will be asking people for donations to help the tens of thousands looking to settle in Europe after fleeing their own countries.
Louise Whitelegg of Christian Aid says they have two distinct targets:
First in series of 'Isle be Ready' sessions to take place next month
More online services for drivers
New support centre 'an oasis' for cancer patients
Orrisdale Road to close for a month for resurfacing works
