A LAVENTILLE woman left displaced after a retaining wall collapsed onto her home on May 18 is set to receive emergency relief from the Ministry of the People, Social Development and Family Services.

Triggered by heavy rainfall, the incident caused significant structural damage and minor leg injuries to Debra Woods, 44, forcing her to move temporarily to a friend’s home.

In a media release on Wednesday, the ministry announced it had responded swiftly through its National Social Development Programme (NSDP) and the National Family Services Division to deliver urgent assistance to Woods, an employee of the Ministry of Culture and Community Development.
