Scouting commissioner recognised for work over the last 20 years
A scout leader on the Isle of Man recognised in the New Year's Honours says it's been wonderful seeing children with complex needs develop new skills.
Guy Thompson has been made a Member of the British Empire after almost two decades involved in scouting, including the last years as Island Commissioner.
In recent years, he's worked to build a programme for those with additional needs to allow them to participate in mainstream activities - the first of its kind in the British Isles.
Guy spoke to Christian Jones about receiving the MBE and his work with the scouts:
Police seeking more witnesses following Ramsey incident
Douglas Council says it's currently 'assessing' damage to sunken gardens
Ramsey MHK concerned 'balance is not right' with flood defence plans
Isle Be Ready sessions about 'building resilience'
Pressure group calls for 'good governance'
