Family of 14-year-old said DHSC's duty of care ended when he died
Bereaved families will be given guidance thanks to the family of 14 year-old boy, and their struggle to make arrangements after he lost his life.
His mum started 'Applause for Jake Watson'; helping the Department of Health and Social Care and Hospice Isle of Man launch a Relative Support Service.
Leanna Watson says the DHSC's duty of care ended when he died - and she found making funeral arrangements difficult to pin down without direction.
She says how the service makes the aftermath of loss easier:

Peel bar impacted by bus strikes
Care funding reform report delayed following ministerial change
Charity plans baby loss memorial garden at Noble's Hospital
New rights for neonatal care leave and carer's leave on the way
Manx Wildlife Trust launches new internship programme
