An island community has come together to promote and monitor the future of development on Douglas Quay.

The newly-formed North Quay Community Association is made up of residents and business representatives.

It is hoped the alliance will give the community a voice in plans to develop the area to its full potential.

Douglas town centre manager Gill Anderson said: "The association will provide a forum for discussing issues, sharing ideas and working together".

The association is open to businesses, non- profit organisations and residents in the area between the inner harbour and Lord Street.
