MHK wants Government to publish food bank strategy

Mon, 24 Oct 2016

An MHK will ask what the Government's strategy is for helping those who depend on a food bank.

Onchan member Rob Callister is keen to see the number of Manx residents who use such facilities reduced.

Chief Minister Howard Quayle will answer the question when the House of Keys sits tomorrow.

The Isle of Man Foodbank had to move to new premises last year and appeal for more volunteers to deal with growing demand.
