In the wake of Hurricane Melissa’s destructive path through Trelawny, Jamaica, state ministers Abka Fitz-Henley, Rhoda Crawford, and Marisa Dalrymple-Philibert took decisive action on Friday. They distributed thousands of care packages and housing relief supplies to the hardest-hit areas of the parish. The ministers visited Woodgrove in Trelawny South, where they engaged with the community and assessed the extent of the damage. Fitz-Henley emphasized that while Westmoreland, St. Elizabeth, and St. James have been the focus of national attention, Trelawny is equally in dire need of assistance. He highlighted the Prime Minister’s directive to ensure that no area is left without support. Crawford expressed her determination to contribute to the rebuilding efforts, stressing the importance of a collective approach to overcome the challenges posed by the hurricane. Both ministers praised Dr. Andrew Wheatley for his personal contribution of additional care packages, underscoring the need for individual efforts to complement government actions. Fitz-Henley reiterated the government’s commitment to providing comfort and aid to those affected by the disaster.
