"We must remember the sacrifices made by our armed forces personnel and do what we can to make the Island a welcoming place for veterans and serving personnel and their families."
"We already fly trauma patients to Southampton and cardiac patients to Portsmouth so the addition of the Helipad at St. Mary's will make the transfer easier for patients and staff."
"These images will allow our Island's heritage to be studied and enjoyed around the world, whilst the original specimens will remain safely housed in the museum close to the bedrocks where they were originally found."
