Manx charity 'devastated' Patient Quiet Room at Liverpool Airport to close

Claims the move is to make room for more retail space

A Manx charity says it's 'devastated' by claims Liverpool John Lennon Airport will be closing a Patient Quiet Room it funded.

The facility, which was officially opened in 2017, is designed to be a place where those from the Island who need medical treatment in the UK can wait for their flights in a comfortable setting.

Manx Breast Cancer Support Group says it's finding it 'difficult to believe' and says the decision has been made to make room for more retail space.

Manx Radio has approached the airport for comment.
