Ministry urges public to assist elderly

As the island continues to experience challenges with its electricity and water supply the Ministry of People Empowerment and Elder Affairs is appealing to the public to carry out welfare checks on their elderly and other vulnerable relatives and neighbours.

Please check to make sure that these persons are not in distress and that they have adequate supplies of water and food. If persons are found to require more help than you can provide please contact the relevant authorities for assistance. (BGIS)
