Representatives of the National Commission for Self Help (NCSH) Limited have visited the Laventille Road, San Juan home of Adanna Winn, who has been living in a severely dilapidated structure for years. However, she was left disappointed after being denied a grant for refurbishment works.
Nearly a month ago, Guardian Media interviewed Winn, who pleaded with the Government for assistance to repair her home or to provide a safe place for her to live. “All I want is just to be comfortable, you know, and get a lil’ peace of mind,” she said at the time.
When Winn received a call from Self Help on Tuesday, she felt a sense of relief—but that was short-lived after the representatives informed her they could not present her with a $25,000 grant because she does not own the property.
