A homeless charity says the emergency accommodation it has been providing is 'pioneer work' for the Isle of Man.
In January, Graih secured funding to pilot a fully staffed night shelter which is set to run for the next 12 months.
The 10 year old charity, has always accommodated the homeless an ad-hoc basis but now has a dedicated space because of rising demand.
Over 200 different individuals came to its drop in centre on Broadway in Douglas over the last year
