Laxey mill highlights importance of buying local
People on the Isle of Man are being urged to consider where they're buying their clothes from.
It follows concerns about the rising cost of living on the Isle of Man and the impact of fast fashion on the environment.
Laxey Woollen Mills was set up in 1881 to use Manx wool and sell local products.
