The CARICOM Implementation Agency for Crime and Security (IMPACS) with the generous support of the British High Commission, Port of Spain, answered the call to support the prison in Antigua and Barbuda by donating basic sanitation supplies to help in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

The sanitation supplies included infrared thermometers, as well as cleaning products such as disinfectant, liquid soap, bleach, hand sanitizers and other necessary supplies. The supplies were received by Lt. Col. Eugene Phillip, Superintendent of Prisons, Antigua and Barbuda, at the V.C Bird International Airport.

Speaking at the airport tarmac, Lt. Col Eugene Phillip noted his appreciation for the supplies and stated that the supplies “go a long way to keep the prison in Antigua COVID free”.
