Due to a fault in the water supply network, there is a temporary interruption of the water supply in the residential area north of Arch. Makarios III Avenue.

The water supply will be restored as soon as possible.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

The emergence of the pandemic, the lockdown and the adverse consequences that have arisen have led to dramatic changes in our daily lives. The fear of becoming ill from the covid-19 virus, job loss and financial difficulties are some of the changes that inevitably affect people’s mental health and well-being.

In this context, the Municipality of Geroskipou, in cooperation with the Nurses of the “Exelixis” Preventive Mental Health Nursing Programme of the Nursing Services Directorate of the Ministry of Health, provide support, mental empowerment and referral to residents.

The services will be provided individually via skype-zoom or by telephone, after arranging an appointment.

Opening hours: daily 8.00 a.m. – 3.00 p.m.

Contact telephone: 99 20 90 54

All services will be offered free of charge.

The Municipality of Geroskipou welcomes the recommendation of the Parliamentary Committee on the Interior for the creation of a municipality in eastern Paphos.

About two years ago, the Mayor, the members of the Municipal Council, the Municipal Service and the Geroskipou Residents’ Initiative Group launched a campaign to change the design of the mergers as far as the Paphos district is concerned. The Municipality expresses its satisfaction that the majority of the parliamentary parties have been convinced of the justice of our request and have recognised the importance of having a municipality in eastern Paphos that will respond more effectively to the needs of the area.

We call on the Ministry of the Interior to demonstrate in practice as well that the number of municipalities is not the very essence of local government reform and, in a spirit of consensus, to work together with the competent committee of the House of Representatives and the parliamentary parties to complete the effort.

Work began a few days ago on the creation of a 1974 Resistance Memorial, on the traffic island next to the entrance of the old Geroskipou National Guard Recruit Training Centre (KEN). Today, 11 January, work started on the repair and restoration of the masonry of the “Guard House”, which stands directly behind the Memorial.

A large part of the cost of creating the Memorial and restoring the masonry will be covered by the contracting company SM&S Build Options Ltd.

The Mayor of Geroskipou, Michalis Pavlides, held a meeting today with the initiative group “100,000 Trees in Paphos” and the AKTI Project and Research Centre.

On the sidelines of the meeting, matters concerning the creation of the two new parks near the Water Development Department in Geroskipou and in Koloni were discussed, including the tree planting of the parks, which is expected to begin around the end of February.

The Municipality of Geroskipou informs its residents that the Waste Collection Service will not operate on Friday, 01 January 2021 and will operate during the early morning hours of Saturday, 02 January 2021.

The Municipality of Geroskipou announces that the refuse collection service will operate normally during the holiday period.

Vouchers worth 500 euros to support the needy families of Geroskipou were delivered today to the Municipality of Geroskipou by the Cypriot petroleum company PETROLINA, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility.

The vouchers were handed over on behalf of the Company to the Mayor of Geroskipou, Michalis Pavlides, by Mr Savvas Pavlikkas.

The Cypriot petroleum company Petrolina (Holdings) Public Ltd has long supported the community and stands even closer to our fellow citizens who are facing difficulties, especially during this festive season.
