The head of an Island drugs advice charity has praised a local trader after they agreed to stop selling nitrous oxide to people who may abuse it.
Shelly Stanley of the Drug Advice Service and Helpline says since she was interviewed on Manx Radio about laughing gas misuse on the Island, she’s had a positive response.
