Digicel-funded repairs at Ptolemy Reid centre completed

The rehabilitated Ptolemy Reid Rehabilitation Centre (PRRC) was yesterday rededicated at a simple ceremony.

The PRRC and Digicel Guyana had signed a Memorandum of Understanding in December last year for major rehabilitation works to be undertaken at the facility.

This alliance came about as a result of a request made by the PRRC, which provides rehabilitative and other services for children with disabilities.
