The Rabie Ridge Residents Association looked back on the year and shared their highs and lows.
Chairman for the Rabie Ridge Resident Association, Charles Jones shared some of the association’s moments, both good and bad from the current year, before highlighting some of their wishes for next year.
Jones explained that some of the association’s highs this year were achieving the temporary residential units. “We are glad, these houses can cater for our youths in overcrowded homes, child-headed families, disabled and underprivileged families. Supporting the elders through social development with food parcels and vegetables is also something positive and memorable, we also got the chance to give them hairdos and pamper them.
“Some of our negatives have been not being able to achieve our main goal which was to change the Golden Oldies structure. It really is dysfunctional and no positive and uplifting results are being yielded. Covid-19 really kept us behind because we wanted to achieve more socially and recreationally, for our youths through the social development department.”
Jones said they hope that next year they can achieve all their missions and targets, especially those they could not achieve this year. To achieve better community building through all government departments and ward councilors included.
He added that on behalf of the residents association, he would like to wish all their community structures, stakeholders, churches and members a very happy Christmas and a prosperous and joyous New year.
“Do not drink and drive, we would also like to thank our community business partners especially Teddy Greaver and James O’Shea for their stunning and phenomenal community support especially towards the elderly. Well done leaders.”
