    Manx Care wants to hear from islanders suffering from Myalgia Encephalomyelitis (ME), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Long Covid.

    The health board is planning extra support and is looking for feedback on how to improve services.

    It is holding four public sessions to develop an understanding of what is needed.

    Health and Social Care Minister, Lawrie Hooper MHK has acknowledged the need to improve what is offered to those living with either of the long-term health conditions.

    The 'Long Covid' workshop will be held on Wednesday, Feb 9 between 4pm-6pm at the Best Western Palace Hotel on Douglas prom.
