Year since devastating floods
A private function is being held in Laxey today (3 Dec) to thank the local community for their support in the aftermath of last year's devastating floods.
Starting at the Ballacregga Cornmill Tea Rooms from 2pm, the gathering's been organised by Stewart Clague to thank all those involved in rebuilding work.
He owns the tea rooms as well as the Salmon Lake Centre, which was severely damaged during the floods.
Mr Clague says with the traumatic experience now behind the village, some 'thank you's' are in order:
Fundraiser for TT rider Maria Costello surpasses £220k
Warmer than average May for Island
Manx BirdLife awarded funding for new warden
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Police appeal after two motorcycles involved in collision
