Commander of “G” Division (Pomeroon/Supenaam), Kevin Adonis, and ranks attached mostly to the Anna Regina Police Station, feted some 45 senior citizens from Queenstown, Essequibo Coast over the weekend.
The feeding programme is the initiative of both the police Administration and the Police Women’s Association. The organizers said that there will be several other activities to proceed in the following months.
These are intended to assist the elderly to take care of themselves. There will be movie nights and programmes to educate seniors.
Adonis assured the seniors, who were all treated to a lunch, that the programme is the first of many orchestrated by the management of “G” Division to foster better community relationship, especially between seniors and ranks of “G” Division, Essequibo Coast.
Some seniors also took the opportunity to request a more compatible relationship with the police officers. They also lobbied for increased police presence.
The event was held at the Queenstown Community Centre.
