ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- The Ministry of Health and Social Development is proceeding to renovate the North Sound Community Centre on Virgin Gorda.

Minister for Health and Social Development, Honourable Carvin Malone (AL) signed an agreement on behalf of the Government of the Virgin Islands with the project contractor Mr Victor Creque on September 23, 2019 to carry out repairs to the centre.

Restoration works will include the exterior windows and doors, kitchen cupboards, interior lighting and wall fixtures, installation of outside lighting, interior and exterior painting, and cleaning of the cistern.

The contract agreement amounts to a sum of $44,486.62 and works will begin on September 30, 2019 and conclude on December 31, 2019.
