On Friday 2nd March 2012 between 2pm and 4pm The Ginger Hall Public House, Sulby Bridge will be the venue for a Tea Dance for members of Age Concern on the Island. This project has come together as a result of the Isle of Man Constabulary's Community Engagement project in the North of the Island. We have established links with different sectors of the Island’s community and built strong relationships so that the elderly or disabled are given good service by the Isle of Man Constabulary.

PC GILES will say “Our message is to people within the Community in the North of the Island to get in touch with PC GILES or Helen Champion if you are or know someone who is alone, lonely or in need of a little TLC. If only one person benefits from this then our team will have proved successful”.
