Island marking National Holocaust Memorial Day today
People on the Isle of Man will come together today in solidarity against prejudice and hatred.
A service is taking place – at St Mary of the Isle Church, on Hill Street, in Douglas - to mark National Holocaust Memorial Day.
It will include readings, prayers, music and song and starts at 3pm with people requested to be in their seats by 2.45pm.
The chief minister has described it as an opportunity for people of all ages and faiths ‘to learn lessons’ from events that have taken place in the past.
Organiser Carol Jempson says the occasion must be marked:
Government proposing a five percent minimum wage rise
Tynwald: Chief minister delivers urgent statement
Former DOI minister informed via a 'two-minute whatsapp call'
MHK criticises language used by chief minister during reshuffle
Chief Minister: I hope that cabinet reshuffle can 'stop the fighting'
