Hi Ellie,
Try joining one of the many service clubs on the island.
You are going to make many contacts and then your
story would be circulated by word of mouth. At least
one person there would have an idea on how to tackle
your problem.
Find out if your original country has an ex-pat organization
here, and you can go from there. Also, membership of a church
could also serve to assist with your predicament.
Hope I've been of some assistance to you.
Norton
