Mobile generator sent to Heysham
The Manx Utilities Authority is supplying power to almost 400 homes in Heysham in the wake of Storm Desmond.
Tens of thousands of homes across the Northwest of the UK were left without electricity following the weekend wind and rain.
The MUA has now sent a mobile generator across on the ferry as part of a mutual aid deal with power firms there.
Andy Cowie, the MUA’s client projects manager, says this emergency is slightly different to normal appeals:
Lone cyclist involved in Peel Road collision
Emergency services attended the incident earlier this week
Government 'unable' to comment on recount outcome
Review of election will include how votes were counted
Manx Care forecasting £19.2million overspend
Healthcare provider records £10.8million deficit in first six months of 2026-27 period
Manx students believe social media ban 'will have pros and cons'
Restrictions on under 16s using some sites will come into force in the UK next year
