More than 3, 000  bedridden pensioners will now have their pensions delivered to their homes, according to Minister of Human Services & Social Protection, Dr. Vindhya Persaud.

She also announced yesterday that plans are on stream to assist the over 59,000 registered pensioners in Guyana to access their pensions hassle free.

If all goes well, then the long lines at post offices at the beginning of the month may be a thing of the past and pensioners in remote areas will also benefit as there will be mobile spots closer to their communities, saving them having to travel long distances to receive their monies.
