Kinchee Creek: A Riverine Community in the Mabaruma Area

·

Kinchee Creek is a riverine community in the Mabaruma sub-district of Barima-Waini, Region 1. It appears in official reporting alongside Aruka Mouth, Smith Creek and other north-western river communities.

A connected community centre

In November 2025, DPI identified the Kinchee Creek Community Centre as the 253rd site connected under the national LEO WiFiGY rollout. The record gives a specific example of digital infrastructure reaching the community.

An earlier June 2021 report documented flood-relief visits to Kinchee Creek and surrounding settlements. These accounts capture different aspects of life in a riverine area: the importance of physical access and the opportunities offered by communications links.
