Island supports refugees through caravan project

Sat, 09 Jan 2016

Churchgoers on the Isle of Man have raised over £8,000 to help re-vamp caravans for refugees.

Broadway Baptist Church collected the money over the Christmas period - half of the proceeds will be donated to the CalaisVan charity which buys and fills caravans with basic supplies for those in need.

The rest will go to Open Doors which helps displaced people in Syria and Iraq - providing things like medical supplies and clothing.

Bill Leishman is the pastor at Broadway:
