Health Minister David Ashford has hailed the benefits of reading the Isle of Man Courier for those left isolated by stay at home Covid restrictions.
He made the comment as he spoke at a press briefing on Wednesday.
Mr Ashford was giving a ’shout out’ to all those with the Youth Service who have been helping deliver the Courier across the island.
He said: ’Many in our community don’t have, or can’t use, internet access and so still rely on the printed media.
