Care home to close to free up resources

One of the Island's care homes is to be decommissioned later this year.

The three residents at Thie Gennal in Surby are to be accomodated elsewhere.

The move is to help free up resources to focus within St Christopher's, who operate care homes on the Island for the Department of Social Care.
