Candidate feels region 'falling behind'
Investing in care homes in the west of the Island is 'overdue' according to a candidate in this year's general election.
The issue has been under the spotlight following the announcement the Corrin Memorial Home in Peel is set to close permanently in July.
Kate Lord-Brennan MLC is hoping to be elected as Glenfaba and Peel MHK in September's ballot.
She feels the region is falling behind other areas:
