Island charity reaches out to people at Christmas

The Island’s branch of the Samaritans is promoting its service throughout the festive period - urging people in need to make contact.

The service is contactable by phone, email or by stopping into its premises on Victoria place in Douglas.

Sinead is the deputy director for Outreach at the Samaritans - she says they are on hand 24/7:
