These facilities will support older people through activities- developing skills and keeping good company within the community whilst tackling social isolation and loneliness, in the West of the Isle of Man.

We are looking to operate warm spaces as part of the wider community initiative.

We need funding to get the project off the ground for the facilities, tools and machinery to make this happen.

£2000 has been raised previously but we need a further £1500 for levelling the floor, so we can start operating from January.
