HEART marks Labour Day with accessibility painting work at Garmechs

HEART marked Labour Day with improvement work at Garmechs, where painting was among the activities being carried out as part of wider projects taking place across Jamaica.

The speaker said the work at Garmechs began with the area serving persons with disabilities, linking the effort to accessibility and HEART’s responsibility to include people with disabilities in its spaces.

The Labour Day activities were described as part of a broader clean-up and beautification push across HEART locations islandwide. The speaker said HEART remains open to young people and wants to attract more of them into training.

Painting was highlighted as an important skill area, especially as more people are needed in construction-related fields for projects across the country. The speaker joked that the hands-on practice could help lead to a painting job one day.

The clip ended with a Labour Day greeting, while the transcript rendered the closing year reference as 2016.
