A newly elected Ramsey commissioner says he would support a proposal to hold a public meeting about the future of the cottage hospital.
Eric Corkish, an accessibility campaigner, joins the board after an uncontested by-election last week and now represents residents of the North Ward.
He’s joined by current Douglas Councillor Arwid Hall who represents those in South Ward.
Mr Corkish added that he ‘missed’ being a commissioner after he stood down in 2018 and now wants to give back to the town.
Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to him:
