THE Ministry of Human Services and Social Security, through its Difficult Circumstances Unit, commenced the distribution of essential mobility aids and care packages to residents of Region Six, East Corentyne-Berbice, on Monday.

The initiative saw the distribution of wheelchairs, walkers, and hampers to individuals in need, aiming to improve their quality of life and provide relief to vulnerable citizens in the region. This effort is part of the Ministry’s ongoing commitment to addressing the needs of Guyanese citizens, especially those facing difficult circumstances.

Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Dr. Vindhya Persaud, has consistently emphasised the importance of supporting those in need and enhancing access to essential services for all citizens, particularly the elderly and differently-abled.

“We remain dedicated to ensuring that no one is left behind,” Minister Persaud remarked in a previous statement, reinforcing the Ministry’s pledge to continue its outreach programmes across the country.

The distribution event in Region Six follows similar initiatives in other regions as the Ministry strives to bring assistance directly to communities, ensuring the most vulnerable populations receive the support they require. The Ministry’s Difficult Circumstances Unit plays a pivotal role in this outreach, targeting individuals who may otherwise struggle to access basic resources and support.

Residents of East Corentyne-Berbice expressed gratitude for the assistance, noting that the provision of mobility aids such as wheelchairs and walkers would significantly enhance their daily lives.

The Ministry of Human Services and Social Security continues to roll out programmes aimed at improving social welfare across Guyana, ensuring that the country’s most vulnerable populations receive the care and attention they deserve.
