Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis, Dr. Terrance Drew, congratulated residents of the Conaree coastal community for completing the nation’s first community-level WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) safety training.
Historic Milestone in Public Health
Dr. Drew shared his commendations on his official Facebook page on April 30, 2026, highlighting the participants’ dedication and the significance of this pioneering initiative. The training represents a breakthrough, empowering locals with essential skills to enhance water safety, sanitation practices, and hygiene standards.
The participants include Aldrick Hanley, Alphonse James, Carl Samuel, Dwight Huggins, George Samuel, Glenville Eddy, Kenville Carey, Lester Nisbett, Ricky Liburd, Steve Isaac, Shane Rogers, and Joseph Harrigan. Their commitment underscores a model for community-driven progress.
Broader Impact on National Resilience
“The commitment these participants have shown to learning and applying top practices in water, sanitation, and hygiene sends a strong message that it’s something others can look up to,” Dr. Drew stated.
This program advances public health awareness, environmental protection, and community resilience across the Federation. It elevates standards in Conaree while supporting nationwide efforts to improve well-being.
Dr. Drew praised the group’s hard work and encouraged them to serve as ambassadors for safety and positive change. He emphasized that progress starts at the community level, and by investing in people, the nation builds a stronger future. Conaree leads the way, inspiring other communities to follow.
