The charity needs £5.5 million each year to continue – Manx Care provides £1.2 million, which is being upped to £1.5 million next year.
Chief executive John Knight says Hospice is under consistent financial pressure:
‘No risk to public’ after fire at Castletown Fire Station
Not one affordable house available to buy
Election candidate reprimanded by Information Commissioners
Minor flooding could hit Ramsey tonight
