Charity aims to find new premises
A new home and improved facilities are on the horizon for the Island's hyperbaric chamber.
Health chiefs say they back the Douglas-based facility in its aim to find new premises - big enough to house two large chambers, offering scope for many more oxygen therapy treatments.
The unit currently receives an annual grant of £100,000 from the health budget and needs to raise £50,000 in donations each year.
The facility has been running for 30 years, enhancing the recovery of patients with a range of injuries and conditions, including many motorcyclists and road racers.
Chamber manager David Downie says they've already taken a major step towards expanding the service:

Business case for horse trams to be put before Tynwald in July
Plans to turn 'underused space' in central Douglas into wellness retreat
Employment grievance 'upheld' against board of Peel Commissioners
