A minute’s applause will be held prior to kick-off for all local senior men's football matches this Saturday in memory of referee Stephen Hall.

The police sergeant sadly died on the evening of Wednesday, November 13, having been involved in the sport for several years.

Cruse Bereavement Support Isle of Man will be available at their office in Tromode between 9am-1pm next Saturday, November 30 to meet with anyone who would like to have a chat about how you're feeling and to privately ask any questions you might have.

Cruse are the only bereavement specialists in the island and have delivered this type of support to many organisations over the years.

These would be one-off sessions – to book, email Cruse at [email protected]

If anyone would like any follow-up support, you can complete an online self-referral form via their website www.cruse.org.im - their waiting time is around six weeks at the moment.
