Renewing Hope in Carisbrook 💙
On Thursday, September 3, 2026, the Southern Regional Health Authority joined the Ministry of Health and Wellness, UNICEF and partner agencies at Carisbrook Primary & Infant School, St. Elizabeth, to bring health, support and hope directly to the community through the Renewed Hope Community Health and Wellness Recovery Fair.
Following the impact of Hurricane Melissa in 2025, residents accessed free health screenings, including blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol checks, while learning more about nutrition, hygiene, physical activity and other essential health topics. Representatives from the Tax Administration Jamaica, the Jamaica Council for Drug Abuse, the Jamaica Council for Persons with Disabilities, the Ministry of Labour and Social Security and more agencies also connected residents with valuable services and resources.
The day was made even more meaningful by the strong community turnout, with adults taking charge of their health and children leaving with smiles and care packages.
Together, we are helping communities recover, rebuild and move forward with renewed hope. 💙
