HANOVER PARK

‘Elation’ at upgradesCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

“Hanover Park se skip het ingekom”(Hanover Parkhas hit the jackpot.)These are the words of Ridwaan

Anthony, chairperson of the Hanover Parkproject steering committee, after mayor Pa-tricia de Lille announced upgrade plans forthe Hanover Park area.During a briefing on Thursday morning

last week the plans were outlined to resi-

dents, ward councillors and steering com-mittee members.De Lille explained the plans for Hanover

Park started almost four years ago.“Wemade the pledge to upgrade the neigh-

bourhood through themayoral urban regen-eration programme and to work towardsbringing down the level of violence in thisgang-infested area.“Today I am excited to report back on our

progress, and even more eager to share theway forwardwhichwehave designed in con-

sultation with representatives of the com-munity,” De Lille said.She added that Hanover Park and Manen-

berg were prioritised to be recipients of up-grades by the City of Cape Town, adding thatparts of the upgrades had already been im-plemented.“We have already made numerous inter-

ventions into the Hanover Park area. TheCity invested R18.2m into safety and stabili-sation initiatives during the last two finan-cial years. These interventions include the

‘Ceasefire’ training and programme, ‘ShotSpotter’ technology, CCTV cameras andschool resource officers. We also conductedan outreach programme for over 400 young-sters at risk and took them through a reha-bilitation programme to protect them fromthe lure of gangsterism,” De Lille said.Business training to the value of R200 000

was provided for 30 start-ups and small, me-dium and micro-sized enterprises (SMME)development trainingwasgiven to 23people.V Continued on page 2.

The Western Cape leg of the JeepWarrior race was held at Meerendalon Saturday and Sunday this pastweekend. The race is South Africa’slargest obstacle course competitionthat spans eight events and includesup to 9000 participants per event.Pictured is Raziya Salie (with bluebandana) from Ottery struggling toget out of the mud. The “mudmonster” obstacle is usually a 100mstretch of mud riddled with 3mhumps and 3m dips athletes have tonavigate as part of the course.

Upgrades in the area have amounted toR60.5m and included upgrading of SurranPark, Hanover Park Centre electricity con-nections, canal clearing, concrete roads,council rental flats and local parks.In her speech De Lille added that it was

important for the community to knowaboutthe plans and to educate themselves aboutwhat would happen.“When people do not get information

about what is happening in their area, thatis when they think that nothing is happen-ing. Then they take to the streets in frustra-

tion, so we are here to let people knowwhatis happening in Hanover Park,” she says.The Hanover Park steering committee

worked on a community action plan (CAP)that was presented to De Lille. It outlinesthe needs and desires of the community inregard to the upgrades.“(The CAP) represents their understandingof thenature of theproblems that they face,”De Lille explained.These needs are prioritised based on the

resources the City has available.The steering committee identified six are-

as that needed intervention:. Schools and the youth,. Employment and economic development,. Spatial planning,. Community safety,. Research and development and. Public safety and facilities.Anthony said he was “elated” to finally

have the upgrades come to Hanover.“As the steering committee we endorse

this framework and eagerly await progress.We want generations to come to be proudof their community,” Anthony said.

ASTRID FEBRUARIE@FebAstrid

Shoppers are warned to be vigilant asthe festive season comes closer. Sever-

al more cases have been reported of wom-en who were conned and their belongingsstolen.People’s Post previously reported that

theWynberg police has seen over 10 casesin which women have been conned into“buying clothes” at half price only to havetheir belongings stolen (“Watch out for‘friendly shop helper’”, 26 May).WarrantOfficer SilvinoDavids, spokes-

person of Wynberg police station, saysthere have been more incidents recently.“All shoppers – not only women – need

to be vigilant at all times, as this couldhappen to anyone. We urge shoppers tonever let their personal items out of theirsight,” Davids says.Several women have been duped into

leaving their belongings with strangersunder false promises of buying items at

several clothing stores at discount prices.Davids says a group of women have

been targeting shoppers in amall inWyn-berg.“Many of the victims were approached

in one specific store in the mall,” he says.According to the investigating detect-

ive the suspect somehow convinces thevictim that she is a store employee andcan get the victim “whatever they wantfor half the price”.“The suspect then tells thevictim if they

are interested to meet with them outsidethe mall, where about three to four other‘interested buyers’ are waiting,” he says.The con artist explains that they can on-

ly go back into the store with one “inter-ested buyer” at a time.The suspect asks the women gathered

to leave all their belongings, includingtheir handbags, cellphones, purses andeven their shopping bags, with the other“interested buyers” who are waiting fortheir turn.The suspect first takes oneof her accom-

plices back to the store. This woman re-turnswith clothing she says has been pur-chased from the store.“This, however, is only a way to make

the victim trust that the suspect is the realdeal,” he says.What happens next is that the victim

leaves all her belongings, goes back to theclothing store with the suspect and is toldto pick out what she wants. She is told togo back outside the mall to where the oth-er “interested buyers” are and wait there.However, the victim realises as soon as

she gets outside the mall to the “waitingarea” that the other three or four “inter-ested buyers” are missing – with her be-longings.“This is awell thought out scamand the

victims are easily lured into purchasingitems at a discount price,” he says.Davids urges shoppers to be careful and

not fall for scams like this one. “If anyonehas any information on the suspects orhas been approached in this mannerplease report it to the police,” he says.

The project for concrete road upgrades inManenberg is on track.This was confirmed by the City of Cape

Town, despite ward councillor Junade Hoo-sain raising a concern about delays at themost recent subcouncil meeting on Thurs-day 17 September.Hoosain said at the meeting that the con-

tractor was experiencing cash flow prob-lemsand thatmaterial deliverywas delayedby a week at the time.

But Brett Herron, mayoral committeemember for transport, maintains therewere no delays in the project and that it isrunning on schedule.“The contract for the reconstruction of

the concrete roads inward 46 inManenbergcommenced in mid-July and the progress ison schedule,” he says

Herron adds that the overall programme

for the reconstruction of concrete roads inManenberg is divided into multiple workpackages or tenders.“Transport for Cape Town, the City’s

transport authority, follows a tender pro-cess for each of these work packages, afterwhich the contractor is appointed to do thereconstruction within a certain ward or ar-ea. The work that is currently underway isinward 46 and the contractorwas appointedin mid-May,” he says.

Herron further explains that a month-long appeal period must be observed beforethe successful contractor can undertake thenecessary preparations before the physicalwork can start.

“The preparations include obtainingbank guarantees, letters from the insurers,the health and safety plan for the specificproject and a detailed programme or pro-posed schedule for the work to be done.These preparations usually take anothertwo to four weeks,” Herron says.

The project is planned to be completed bythe middle of the year next year and is ex-pected to cost about R19.2m.Herronadds that concrete roads are being

upgraded across the city on an ongoing ba-sis in areas such as Heideveld, Manenbergand Hanover Park.

“This work includes the reconstruction,rehabilitation and repair of existing con-crete roads in these areas. The majority ofthe roadworks consist of the ‘crack and seal’rehabilitation method of concrete roads,whereby the existing concrete is cracked inorder to perform as a flexible base, and theroad is topped with a bitumen-rubber tar-mac layer. In some instances, the wideningof the existing roadway is also required andin all cases a new kerb and channel is pro-vided,” he explains.

Included in the road upgrades are repairsto stormwater gullies and pipework. Newsurfaced sidewalks and road verges are alsoconstructed.

Owners of the One cash and carry shop inLansdowne are in shock after they wererobbed on Wednesday morning last week.

According to Colonel Herman Seals, com-mander at Lansdowne police station, theshop on the corner of St Aidans and Wind-sor roadswas robbedonWednesdayat 10:45.The shop is owned by Chinese nationals.Seals says eight unknown men armed

with firearms and knives entered the shopand started to assault people in the shop.He says that R20 000 cash and four cell-

phones to the value of R10 000 were taken.The five people who were in the shop sus-

tained injuries during the robbery andweretaken to hospital for treatment.

Eyewitnesses on the scene allegedlyheard gun shots, but police say that no shotswere fired during the robbery.When People’s Post visited the store on

Thursday, it seemed as if it was business asusual with the store open for trading.

But on closer investigation, the atmos-phere was one of tension.

As a result, the Chinese nationals whowerepresent refused to commenton the rob-bery, instead fingering a shop steward.

James Mkailo (22) then confirmed thatone of the Chinese nationals was stabbedand that the suspects fled in an unidentifiedcar.

“They came and robbed them. Four guys.I was inside working and they beat them,they wanted money,” he said.

He confirmed that all the crime wascaught on security cameras.

No arrests have been made and cases ofbusiness robbery and assault with intent tocause grievous bodily harm have beenopened for investigation.V Anyone with information can contact the Lans-downe detectives on 021 700 9000.

tered the shop with two friends. Withoutwarning the perpetrator attacked her and shetried to flee on foot.“She tripped and fell; this is when he

stabbed her eighteen times in her back,” saysBennett. The shop owner intervened, but itwas too late.A case ofmurder has been opened for inves-

tigation, with the suspect arrested chargedwith murder. He was scheduled to appear inthe Athlone Magistrates’ Court yesterday.V Anyone with information regarding this incident cancontact Manenberg police on 021 699 9400 or CrimeStop on 086 001 0111.

Rio Grandelights upCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

“Colour our community” was beautiful-ly illustrated by pupils of Rio Grande

Primary School in Manenberg in the latestinitiative of a combined group of studentsfrom Stellenbosch University and CapePeninsula University of Technology.This follows the Silence Violence cam-

paign which was introduced at the schoolearlier this year.Grade 6 and 7 pupils had the opportunity

to leave their colourful marks on a banner,whichwill be featured on the organisation’swebsite, scheduled to be launched earlynext year.Monique Ponto from the SilenceViolence

campaign says the collaboration is a firstfor the organisation.“This is a first for team Silence Violence

and an initiative headed by our media andcommunications team under the guidanceof three talented CPUTMedia students. Thevideo will be one to close off a good year forSilence Violence, and create an art piece,”Ponto explains.“The collaboration started less than a

month ago, when Lwamkelu Cakata, along

withhis colleague and friendDitaba-Joseph‘Deejay’Khauoeapproached theheadofMe-dia,MishqaJakoet. These vibrant, talented,rising stars are not short of passion andtheir work and ethic speak for themselves.They are young, upcoming professionalswhose tales relate to the circumstances ourpupils find themselves in.”“When you remove the children from a

community already in strife, you are leftwith a community in darkness. The pupilsof Rio Grande bring light and add colour totheir community of Manenberg. This meta-phor resonates with what this initiativecaptures visually,” Ponto continues.“Their artwork was mounted onto a wall

to form a mosaic banner. The arrangementwas done in such a way that both the schooland organisation’s logos formed the centreand were surrounded by images of the com-munity and handprints of the pupils sym-bolic of Silence Violence.”She adds the idea will be to select an im-

age of Rio Grande Primary, have the imageenlarged and a stencil of the image made.The stencil will then be made available forthe pupils to colour in or paint. Their art-work will then be digitised and used as apart of the site.

Rio Grande Primary School pupils helped make a banner, themed “Colour our community”, forthe Silence Violence campaign. The banner will be included on the organisation’s website.

Mental healthcareshould uphold dignityMental Health Awareness Month is cele-brated annually in October. This yearCape Mental Health will be raisingawareness around the theme of “Dignityin mental health”.One in four people in all communities

have a mental health condition, and onein every four people has, at some pointin their lives, experienced a loss of digni-ty because of their mental health condi-tion, says Cape Mental Health directorIngrid Daniels.“Few people understand the true

meaning of dignity, and even fewer real-ise the extraordinary impact it has onour lives and relationships. The socialexclusion, lack of resources, inequality,discrimination and stigma faced bymany people with amental illness inhib-its the restoration of their dignity,” shesays.Cape Mental Health is aiming to re-

store the dignity of patients and to ad-dress external factors that erode theirdignity by offering comprehensive, pro-active and enabling mental health servi-ces in the province.Despite the existence of legislation like

the national mental health policy frame-work strategic plan 2013- 2020, there are

still crucial issues that need to be ad-dressed and rectified to ensure the digni-ty ofmental health care patients, Danielssays.These include easy and reliable access

to the correct medication, access to com-munity-based rehabilitation centres, theallocation of sufficient beds and resour-ces to psychiatric and other health carefacilities, ensuringmedical staff haveba-sic training in and understanding ofmental health and ensuring patient par-ticipation in treatment plans and policyimplementation.“Although South Africa has legisla-

tion in place to ensure the protection ofthe rights of people with psychiatric andintellectual disabilities, it is our ongoingresponsibility to ensure that this legisla-tion is implemented so that all South Af-ricans are treated with dignity and re-spect,” she says.Michael Hattingh, a member of Cape

Mental Health’s psychosocial rehabilita-tion programme, called Fountain House,says: “We should always remember thatin order to restore dignity, all people liv-ing with a mental illness have a voiceand should be heard. I am not defined bymy mental illness.”

On Saturday facilities around theworld, in-cluding the Two Oceans Aquarium, will becelebrating African Penguin AwarenessDay.The endangeredAfrican penguin is found

only along the Southern African coastline.A number of activities will take place at

the Aquarium on the day to celebrate.A mini Penguin Waterfront Waddle will

kick things off. This year, the 2.5km routewill amble through theWaterfront, startingand finishing at the Aquarium. All partici-pants are encouraged to wear black andwhite in support of the penguins and to jointhe festivities from 08:30 for complimentarybeverages. The waddle will start at 09:00.Waddlers are also encouraged to bring theirown water, as bottled water is not encour-aged.Samantha, the Aquarium’s penguin mas-

cot, will make an appearance and membersof the Aquarium will have the opportunityto see the movie City slickers – A tale of twoAfrican penguins.TheAfrican penguin is endemic to South-

ern Africa and the only penguin speciesfound on the continent. They are only foundfrom the Namibian coast in the west, to Al-goa Bay in the east. These charismatic,flightless birds are classified as endangeredaccording to the IUCNRed List of Threaten-ed Species.It is estimated that, at the turn of the cen-

tury, the African penguin population num-

bered approximately 1.5m.These enigmatic birds face extinction in

the wild as their numbers continue to de-cline dramatically, with just over 18 000breeding pairs left in South Africa.Loss of food source due to overfishing, cli-

mate change and habitat destruction arejust some of the factors taking their toll.African penguins feed mainly on small,

shoaling fish like pilchards and anchovies.This puts them in direct competition withhumans. Studies have found that Africanpenguins have to travel further and furtheraway from their colonies in search of food.This is detrimental to penguin chicks asthey rely on their parents for food and pro-tection. The adult penguins are also suffer-ing, as they have to consume enough fishto sustain them as well as their chicks.V For more information about the celebrations of Afri-can Penguin Day at the Two Oceans Aquarium visitwww.aquarium.co.za.

Prominent Muslimleader diesEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

The Muslim community of Athlone is inmourning after the death of Shaykh Abd

Al Rasheed Brown on Wednesday last week.Brown was a prominent leader and Qari

(a person who recites the Qur’an with theproper rules of recitation). He was a great-grandson of Shaykh Abdullah Taha Ga-mieldien and great-grandson of imam Shah-eeboe of the Chiappini Street Masjied.

Brown was an imam at the Masjidul Qudsin Gatesville and at Masjidus Sunni inKromboom.

He had ten siblings.He completed a Bachelor’s degree in The-

ology at Icosa before studying ReligiousStudies at the University of Cape Town, andobtained diplomas in Management, Coun-selling and Conflict Management, HR De-velopment and IT training.

Brown was an accomplished internation-al speaker, lecturer and Qari.

SadnessThe Cape Town Islamic Education Centre

(CTIEC) has expressed its sadness atBrown’s passing.

“We pray that Allah Almighty throughthe Wasila of His Beloved Prophet Muham-mad (SAW), grants him a lofty station inparadise. The CTIEC forwards its condolen-ces to his family, followers and students,”the Centre says in a statement.

Khalifa Mufti Sayed Haroon Al Azhari,head of the Cape Town Ulama Board, andHafez Zaid Sayed, deputy principal of theCTIEC, Shaykh Sayed Noor Ad Dusuqi, ex-ecutive member of the CTIEC, ShaykhSayed Ridhwaan Ziyaee, Zia ul Uloom andother officials of the CTIEC also expressedtheir deep sadness and prayed for Brown’s

high rank in paradise and patience forSouth Africans at coming to terms with thisloss.

“Words cannot express the sadness thatthe heart is filled with. As if the world isa strange planet where we no longer belong.

“He was one whose knowledge, sincerityand honesty gave us some comfort in thisplace; someone whom we could depend onfor the knowledge of our religion; verily, hehas departed from the company of the menof this earth to the company of the men ofthe Hereafter,” says the CTIEC.

Shaykh Abd Al Rasheed Brown was aprominent leader and Qari and former imamat the Masjidul Quds in Gatesville and atMasjidus Sunni in Kromboom.

Tea cups tinkle for St Luke’s,Cansa at Islamia High SchoolMore than a 100 women were encouragedto continue the fight against cancer whenthe Melomed Private Hospitals companyhosted them at its annual breast cancerawareness fundraiser at the AlhambraRestaurant at Islamia High School lastweek.“Together cancer can be beaten,” says

Melomed’s Leizl Daniels.According to her, cancer awareness and

education remain pivotal in the early de-tection and treatment of breast cancer.Regular breast examination and screeningare promoted as part of the company’s cor-porate social responsibility in support ofgovernment’s health campaign.All proceeds of the ticket sales of the

event were donated to St Luke’s Hospice(R10 000) and Cansa (R5 000).

Women from the local communities, cur-rent patients and survivorswere invited toencourage and be encouraged in the ongo-ing battle against the debilitating dis-ease.The event took the form of a high teawith much emphasis placed on decor andcatering to ensure that the right scene wasset for the information about cancer to bewell received by the audience.Guest speakers included resident spe-

cialists ofMelomed as part of their supportfor the initiative.The eventwashosted byDrBrendaFord,

a physician atMelomedBellville and a can-cer survivor himself, Dr Nadiya Ahmed, ageneral surgeon who also specialises inbreast surgery at Melomed Gatesville, aswell as Dr Imraan Parker, the resident on-cologist at Melomed Gatesville.

The Melomed company held its annual breast cancer awareness fundraiser last week. At the“high tea”-themed event at the Alhambra Restaurant at Islamia High School the companyraised money for St Luke’s Hospice and Cansa.

A sting in the tail that really bitesDESIRÉE RORKE

Awaking from their winter dor-mancy, the devilish and very

invasive little black and yellow Pa-perwasps are back tomake life hellfor residents of Cape Town. But theCity says they are ready for this on-slaught.Since invading the city several

years ago, the species – said to havemade their appearance in KuilsRiver in 2010 – have plagued localhouseholds.Since the launch of the invasive

wasp control (IWC) teams in 2014,the City has removed 8 000 Europe-an paper wasp nests from suburbsacross the Cape including areassuch as Ottery, Plumstead, Con-stantia, Woodstock, Athlone andWetton, says Mayco member forenergy, environmental and spatialplanning, Johan van der Merwe.Both alien invasive wasp spe-

cies, theEuropeanpaperwasp (pol-istes dominula) and the Germanwasp (vespula germanica) are list-ed as a category 1b invasive speciesin the Alien and Invasive Speciesregulations in the National Envi-ronmental Management Biodiver-

sity Act.“This means that scientists have

agreed that thewasps, by law, haveto be removed as they pose a threatto the local ecosystem and severalimportant industries such as de-ciduous fruit, wine and bee keep-ing industries,” says Van der Mer-we.In some parts of the USA, where

the same wasps invaded in the1980’s and 90’s, entire colonies ofindigenous species were de-stroyed.Cape Town residents are advised

to be aware that the sting fromthesewasps is particularlypainful.“Last season there were many

reports of the German wasp sting-ingworkers harvesting grapes andother fruit. The wasps also presenta hazard to residents who may un-intentionally disturb a colony.”A second team was introduced,

following the hundreds of sight-ings andwasp removal requests byresidents last summer.“Residents are encouraged to re-

port sightings to theCity or contacta reputable pest control company.Property owners are primarily re-sponsible for pest control on their

premises, and the City will assistaccording to available capacity,”he says.If nests are removed privately,

property owners are urged to senda report containing their street ad-dress and the number of nests re-moved to [email protected] as this helps with theCity’s future planning and re-search.“The City will make every effort

to timeously assist the publicwhere possible, within our availa-ble capacity, to ensure their safetyand peace of mind,” says Van derMerwe. He adds that the IWCteams are neither trained norequipped to deal with bee removal.Should residents require bee re-moval, they should contact a pro-fessional bee keeper. The teamwillalso not exterminate indigenouswasps. Residents who would likeassistance can upload sightings onthe spotter network at www.cape-towninvasives.org.za/edrr/target-list, and thereafter theywill be con-tacted to arrange the removal.

Now these children can watch moviesDESIRÉE RORKE

@dezzierorke

Not all children can take for granted the joyof watching their favourite movie on the bigscreen.On Thursday morning, some 100 vision

impaired children, many of them sufferingfrom eye abnormalities as a result of FetalAlcohol Syndrome (FAS), were treated toMaya the Bee at Ster-Kinekor Gape Gate,having discovered their newfound vision.For these little five to seven-year-olds, this

was their first cinema experience after re-ceiving either spectacles or eye surgery.“Growth inside the retina is affected by

FAS, resulting in these children having se-vere vision impairment. Some of them canbe helped by means of spectacles or in moresevere cases surgery if detected earlyenough,” said FranceNxumalo from theBri-en Haden Vision Institute in Durban.The institute is currently in the process of

expanding their work to the Western Capewinelands and has teamed up with localNPO My Little Eye.“We go to wine farms to screen the chil-

dren of the farm workers for vision impair-ment.We thenrefer themto clinics and insti-tutions such as Brien Haden to assist themwith the help they might need,” says Ramo-na Lubbe from My Little Eye.Since 2005, Ster-Kinekor, through their

flagship social investment programme Vi-

sion Mission, has partnered with strategicpartners to help children such as these.“Vision Mission has for the past 10 years

offered eye sight screening and spectacles tochildren from previously disadvantagedbackgrounds across the country. With over281 100 beneficiaries to date, the programmeaims to eradicate preventable blindness in

children,” Ster-Kinekor Social InvestmentManager Geraldine Engelman said.The day’s activities also marked World

Sight Day and the start of National Eye CareAwareness month.Engelman says sight is integral to appreci-

ating the wonderful world of cinema.“Research has revealed that blindness

could be avoided in eight out of 10 cases ifproper testing is conducted at an early age.The visual system is fully developed be-tween10and11years,whenaproblemmightbe corrected and vision preserved,” shesays.“Poor eye sight can also not onlymake the

learning experience uncomfortable, but italso hinders progress in the classroom,sporting and extra-mural ability and socialintegration.”Research done at UCT has shown that the

Western Cape’s wine region has one of thehighest reported levels of FAS in the world– levels of up to 300 per 1 000 children are af-flicted in some Boland regions, according toDr Susan Levine, a medical anthropologistwith the University of Cape Town.Due to the legacy of the age old “dop sys-

tem” implemented 300 years ago, but bannedin the 1960s, alcoholism is still widespreadon the wine farms around Paarl and Stellen-bosch.Harry Rosen, CEO of the South African

Optometric Association also attended theevent and said eye sight is often taken forgranted. “Without spectacles none of thesekids would have been able to watch themov-ie today. The sad reality is that hundreds ofthousands South Africans are vision im-paired, but have no access to eye care.”V Follow National Eye Care Awareness month activi-ties via the Ster-Kinekor Theatres page on Facebookand follow Ster-Kinekor on Twitter: @sterkinekor.

A safehouse for abused women and chil-dren experienced a huge blow whenthe property was broken into and

items worth R45 000 stolen.Now the home is in dire need of suppliesand is turning to the public for support.The home is situated in Wynberg, but theprecise address cannot be revealed to pro-tect the vulnerablewomenand childrenwholive at the premises.Warrant officer Silvino Davids, spokes-person of Wynberg police station, has con-firmed the break-in.The safehouse is managed by LavenderHill-based organisation Philisa Abafazi Be-thu.Manager Janine Poggenpoel says thehome is an emergency facility which pro-vides a safe space for women for up to 72hours. But there has been women and theirchildrenwho have stayed longer, dependingon their situation.“We take care of these women and chil-dren andprovide themwith a place of safety,away from their abusive homes and part-ners,” she says.The break-in hasmade it difficult for themto take on more people as they are low onsupplies.“Wecanonly accommodate a certainnum-ber of people as we rely on donations andfundraisers who host events to raise themoney needed to buy basic supplies,” shesays.Poggenpoel says the property stolen in-cludes brand new blankets, as well as foodand clothing.“These are all basic items required to helpthe women and children. It is tough for usnow, but somehow we manage. But we docall on the public to support us and ourcause,” she says.The home has been open since 2012 and ca-ters for women and children from all com-

munities.Some of the women who enter the homecome with little or nothing and everythingis provided for them– fromclothingand foodto supplies for their babies, which Poggen-poel says is “extremely costly”.“We feel bad when we have to turn some-one away because we do not have enoughspace or food. We have dedicated our timeto this home, to making it a place wherewomenand their children can feel safe. Herewe guide and protect them, but we cannotdo it without the support of the public,” shesays.Poggenpoel says after the break-in every-one is feeling vulnerable and scared.

“We are only women here and we feel likeour space has been invaded. The little bitthatwehavewas taken fromusand forwom-en and children who come from abusivebackgrounds it is extremely scary,” sheadds.Poggenpoel says that despite the break-intheywill continue to provide a safe space forwomen and children who are victims of sex-ual and domestic violence to live freely andwithout fear and to support and educatewomen and children about their rights andfreedoms.Readers who want to donate or make acontribution toward the safehouse can con-tact Poggenpoel on 081 320 5834.

From the beginning of this month the buri-al hours at Maitland, Welmoed and Khaye-litsha cemeteries have been extended onSaturdays and Sundays.This is being done for a trial period of six

months.The purpose of the extension is to accom-

modate more burials over the weekend, toprovide amore dignified service in the bus-iest cemeteries and to avoid congestion be-tween noon and 14:00.The extended hours will be on Saturdays

from 08:00 to 16:00 and on Sundays fromnoon to 15:00.Belinda Walker, mayoral committee

member for community services and spe-cial projects, says about 1000 burials amonth take place in Cape Town cemeteries.Saturday is the much preferred day for

funerals at the City’s cemeteries.“We want our cemeteries to be quiet and

dignified spaces where people can congre-gate to bury and mourn their loved ones.But with so many funerals taking place onthe same day, this is no easy task. I believethat the extension of the burial bookinghours on Saturdays at our three largestcemeteries will go a long way towards ad-dressing this challenge,” says Walker.Sunday morning burials for specific de-

nominations will still apply.

A quick response by a lifeguard saved thelives of two teens at Camps Bay beach

last weekend.Senior lifeguard Mzikayise Jacobs from

Mandalay says two boys, aged 16 and 17years, were swimming on Saturday 3 Octo-ber between 16:30 and 17:00.

“We were doing crowd control on the westside of the beach when we saw the teensswimming. We blew the whistles but theydid not take note. My colleague then blew thewhistle again,” he tells People’s Post.

“The one then got caught in a rip current.His friend then tried to help him and alsogot caught. I noticed he was struggling andmy colleague followed. We managed to getthem out and swam them to shore where theone was treated for hypothermia.”

Both teens from Kraaifontein survived theordeal.

“We are very grateful to the Camps Baylifeguards on duty, whose efficient team-work ensured the safety of the bathers,” saysBelinda Walker, mayoral committee mem-ber for community services and special pro-jects.

Jacobs has been a lifeguard for more than15 years and is one of the 12 new lifeguardspermanently employed by the City of CapeTown (“More lifesavers to guard swim-mers”, People’s Post, 6 October).

The City has these safety tips for bathers:. Swim only where there are lifeguards andwhere signs indicate that it is safe.. Do not swim in an area if there are no life-guards present.. Make sure that the lifeguards can see youwhen you are in the water.. Always swim in supervised swimming ar-eas, taking care to avoid dangerous rip cur-rents and tides.. Only swim in areas where other people arepresent. Swim in groups and advise friendsor family when you go swimming.. Do not swim when there are marine ani-mals such as whales, dolphins and seals inthe area or when a marine animal carcasshas washed up onto the beach.. If you find yourself in trouble, raise yourarm and wave to attract a lifeguard’s atten-tion. Try not to panic, as this will make youtired.

. If you see someone in trouble in the sea,alert the lifeguards or find trained help. Donot put your own life in danger as well.. Do not swim after drinking alcohol.. Report any drunk beachgoers to the life-guard.

Jacobs also reminds people not to try andsave others if they are not qualified to do so.

“Like in this case where the boy tried tosave his friend, he also got into trouble,” hesays.

Jacobs says he is passionate about savinglives.

He joined the Mnandi lifesaver club in1998 and previously swam for the GugulethuGunners swimming club.

He encourages youngsters to get involvedin lifesaving.

“If you can’t swim, it should not stop you.I would like to encourage the youth to joina swimming club and then a lifesavers clubto qualify,” he says.

Plastic is ‘gold’ for disabledTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Some people might regard a bread tag andthe bread plastic bag as useless, not know-ing it is full of mobility for others.

A bread tag and plastic bag, if collectedand recycled, enables people to get wheel-chairs.

A Good Samaritan who has been work-ing for the Bread Tag Foundation for thepast eight years knows the potential andhas given people in her area another leaseon life.

Karen Andriaanse donated threewheelchairs to residents of Factreton andKensington last week. She says it was assimple as collecting bread tags and plas-tic bags. The money that’s obtained fromrecycling them bought wheelchairs.

“People take these two (a bread tag andplastic bag) for granted, not knowing thatsomeone’s life depends on it. By puttingthem together other people are able tolive independently because they are giv-en their mobility back when they get awheelchair. It really makes me happythat I’m able to contribute positively tothe people in my community,” she says.

One recipient, Michael Fisher fromSunderland Street, was ecstatic that hecould move around again and be out-doors.

“I was a vendor and a freak accident leftme unable to walk. I’m so happy that withthis wheelchair I got I will be able to movearound and go to the shops on my own.It’s not easy having to rely on other peo-ple to do things for you, but I’m glad thisis another chance to live life to the full-est,” he says.

“Each tag, as useless as it may seem, isgold to someone who cannot walk. I en-courage members of the community to

make a difference and help me to collectbread tags and bread plastic bags,” saysAndriaanse.

Andriaanse did it as part of a PeaceBuilders project. She was amongst 20 peo-ple who graduated from the programmeat the end of last month. She says the pro-gramme has opened her eyes.

“To deal with things you must firsthave inner peace. I want to spread thatmessage amongst other people in my com-munity.”V Those who want to drop off bread tags and breadplastic bags can call Andriaanse on 084 805 8254.

Bennie Bunsee, a political commentatorand journalist and former executivemember of the Wynberg Residents andRatepayers’ Association died on Satur-day.

Bunsee would have celebrated his 80thbirthday on 22 October.

Resident Darron Arouja says Bunsee

made Wynberg his home when he re-turned from exile under apartheid, andlived in Prospect Hill Road.

Bunsee had open-heart surgery only ashort while ago, but was readmitted tohospital with post-surgery complica-tions.

Raised in Chesterville, Durban, Bunseewas a struggle veteran. As a teenager hetaught himself to type so as to follow hisdream of a career in journalism, focusingespecially on politics.

Bunsee served on the first WynbergResidents and Ratepayers’ Association(WRRA) executive committee, havingregularly attended public meetings to as-sist with the formation of the Associa-tion. Bunsee was particularly outspokenagainst crime in Wynberg and was amember of the WRRA’s first communitysafety subcommittee.

He regularly attended public meetingsconvened by the WRRA, and openlyvoiced his support for the Associationagainst the “controversial” BRT route.

Bunsee attended the first candlelightvigil held by the SRFA against the BRTroute in February, and walked the routeof the evictions, before he and others ad-dressed the gathering.

He is survived by his nephew Michael,who moved to Cape Town to assist Bunseeover the period of his illness. He is fur-ther survived by family in Durban and inManchester, England.

A thorough, dignified gentleman, hewas a special friend to his neighbours inProspect Hill and Mountain View roadsand will be very much missed.

V&A’s craft shed awardedThe new home for African craft and design,the V&A Waterfront’s Watershed, has beenrecognised twice over for its design and re-development at two prestigious award cere-monies.

The R50m redevelopment of a former craftmarket and disused workshop into a hub forquality African art and design now knownas the Watershed, was recognised at thisyear’s Cape Institute for Architecture (CIfA)Awards and at the 19th Annual South Afri-can Council of Shopping Centres (SACSC)Congress.

Formerly the Craft Market and WellnessCentre and commonly known as the BlueShed, the historic warehouse structure ofthe Watershed was opened to the public fortrade in October last year.

The Watershed was one of only 12 develop-ments in the Western Cape to receive a CIfAAward for Architecture this year, with theInstitute commending the re-imagining of aclosed, warehouse space into an open-ended“indoor street”.

The Watershed was also named a co-win-ner in the Redevelopment of Existing Spaceaward category at the SACSC Congress’s An-nual Retail Design and DevelopmentAwards (RDDA).

The prestigious awards recognise excep-tional shopping centre design combinedwith economic success.

They have a particular interest in develop-ments with excellent design solutions andthose that achieve a clear overall develop-ment goal.

Our lives have become intrinsically linked with technolo-gy.

We would never dream of leaving the house without acellphone. Not feeling the weight of one in your pocketleaves you feeling vulnerable, naked.

Whilewe’remore connected thaneverbefore,we’ve for-gotten how to actually connect with those around us.

How often do you sit around a table with friends, withat least one person (if not all of them) glued to theirphones?

Cellphones take prized place next to the bed, are alwayskept on full volume and can’t be ignored, even while driv-ing – or at least that’s how we behave.

But when did we forget our manners?When did it become socially acceptable to ignore your

dinner company to reply to a text message or to answeremails while in a meeting?

And surely switching your phone off during an event,concert, movie, wedding or church service should be abasic courtesy.

Yet we regularly find little Tommy’s solo in the schoolplay, the romantic love scene of the latest blockbuster oreven the vows of a bride and groom interrupted by thechirping of a phone.

What does it say about us as a society that money hasto be spent on advertising to ensure cellphones are turnedoff before a movie and priests have to start sermons byasking that cellphones be switched off?

It speaks to a lack of respect for others that we can’teven manage simple cellphone etiquette.

But really, it should be quite simple – if you wouldn’ttalk during the event, others shouldn’t hear your cell-phone.

It’s a courtesy that we should expend without thinking,as simple as saying please or thank you.

So please turn off your cellphone. Thank you.

I am one of ‘those’I lived in a shack made of metal sheets,wood and plastic.

I remember how my mother made food– of which there was never secondhelpings – on a primus stove if she andmy dad got some money and other times,which were mostly, my mother cookedfood on an open fire.

My clothes were always broken anddirty. Now and then I would get a pairof shoes either too small or too big, butit was my shoes. Every morning my dadwould take his trolley, which he some-how got from a supermarket, and withhis thin, dirty clothes and broken shoesleave our shack – our home – to skuddle.

I would later learn what the word“skuddle” meant for my parents and forus children. Every day and night foryears I and my family used the sameblankets, which got thinner and moretorn year after year.

I would play with children around mealso living in shacks and I knew noother way. I thought this was how onewas supposed to live.

At age six I saw some children put ona set of neat clothing they would call aschool uniform and walk for miles to aschool to “get educated”. When I askedmy mother when was I going to beeducated, she would tell me “One daywhen there is money” and when theywould get a cement and brick housefrom the government.

At age seven I was taken by my dad tohelp him skuddle. We walked out of therickety fence surrounding our informalsettlement and I was so proud, so excitedto go with my daddy to work, to skuddleand so contribute to our survival and tocurb the ever-lingering hunger pains.

We came to big, beautiful brick houseswith big tarred roads, big fences andeverywhere there were shiny cars.Everywhere fat little children my agewere playing and sounding happy inbeautiful, neat clothes.

To me this was like another worldand, with all the lawns and parks andtarred roads, I thought this was heaven.I then saw bins standing on the pave-ments and dad explained to me that “die

ryk mense” (the rich people) place theirgarbage and dirt in these bins. In thesebins were goodies: Items my dad wouldscratch out and place in his trolley.

The bins had all kinds of smells,mostly unpleasant, but this did not determy daddy. This was skuddle.

I will never forget how I innocentlywaved and smiled at the uncle and theaunties behind the fences of thesebeautiful homes. To my shock I wasignored as if I was a pest, a disease.

But a very few greeted my dad andhanded him a few items of clothing andsome bread. My dad and others of ourcommunity had to hurry before thetrucks came to empty the bins.

With my dad’s guidance I helped heapor load plastic, cardboard and metalpieces onto our trolley. In some bins mydad found some clothing and now I knewwhere my “new” clothing came from.

At the end of the skuddle we went tothe nearest scrapyard and my dad gotR53 for his goods. We went to a shopand Dad bought a half loaf of bread, atin of fish, four loose cigarettes for himand Mom, R7 French polony and alollipop for me.

Now, years later, I own my owntrolley and I do my own skuddle. When Isee a piece of newspaper lying around Iadmire the pictures but the words meannothing to me as I cannot read and yet Ilive in a beautiful country with awonderful concept that is the Constitu-tion that states all citizens are equal, sothe people and the politicians say. And Ihear people preached that in the BibleJesus stated very clearly that one mustlove one’s neighbour as one lovesoneself, and I also hear in our democrat-ic South Africa we have freedom ofmovement and freedom of association,but yet I am called “those people”.

Then my prayer is that you who livein brick homes, who have work, whohave bank accounts and are educated,you or your children will never wear myshoes or my clothing and live where Ilive.

KEITH BLAKE,Ottery

‘Lovelylanguage’ ismarginalisedWe recently celebrated Heritage Monthand Day as a rich, proud nation ofdiversity, the rainbow nation with itseleven languages.

It should not just be a day to take offfrom work but to celebrate our trueidentity, our upbringing, our patriotism,traditions, cultures.

I was born in the lovely town ofUpington in the Northern Cape, aprovince rich with culture and blessedwith the most friendly people.

It is where Afrikaans is proudlyspoken. Where people speak the languagelike poetry. So, it is part of my culture,my upbringing and tradition.

Over the last decade or so I have cometo realise with alarm that this lovelylanguage is being marginalised, especial-ly at schools. If a parent wants to enroltheir child whose home language isAfrikaans, they have limited options.

They are then indirectly forced to puttheir children in English-speakingclasses. This then forces the child to notbe confident in class, to feel overwhelmedand struggle and in some cases it is acontributing factor to the drop-out figure.

In Mitchell’s Plain, for example, thereare very few Afrikaans classes forentry-level education and some parentshave to look outside the area. I am quitesure the department knows about thesituation but “fiddles while Rome burns”and want to be politically correct.

I read that the department wants tointroduce Mandarin as well as anAfrican language into the school sylla-bus, which is good if it makes ourchildren more marketable but not at theexpense of other equally importantlanguages.

Let us be accommodating in our proudheritage in our quest for true nationbuilding.

Lank leef Afrikaans.C. BASSON,

ward committee member

Singer has manytalents, plansLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

She’s a singer, a writer, an artist, anentrepreneur and a mother.Retreat’s Lydia Lategan is a woman

of many talents. She’ll be showcasing afew of them when she releases the firstthree tracks off her upcoming albumwith a concert at Upper Hall Church, inSonata Street, Steenberg on Sunday 1November.

While she plans to officially launchMaster of the eagle, her debut, 12-trackalbum, in February next year, she’ll begiving music fans a taste with a three-trackEP titledHekneweverythingat theend of the month.

inspiring”. A mixture of country andgospel, the upcoming album tells thestoryofher ownpersonal journeyof res-toration through religion.

Lydia says the album, produced byDamian Roman, will be encouragementfor people from all walks of life.

It was love thatmotivated Lydia to be-gin writing. She started with a storyabout a childhood love, the same lovethat inspired 70 poems in three days lat-er in her life. One of these, “Downmem-ory lane”,was published in a poetry antholo-gy.

As with her poetry, Lydia’s songs comestraight from the heart, telling stories thatcover the full spectrum of human emotions;from lost love to hope and unexpected luck.She is constantly writing, sometimes

working on three songs at a time, but whenshe isn’tmakingmusic, Lydia is also a paint-er. Some of herworkwill be exhibited beforeher performance at the Upper Hall Church.

dren also runs signwriting, catering and in-terior decorating businesses.“If the one is quiet, I go on to the next one.”She is also planning a gospel concert titled

Choir and guestsrecreate WWII lifeLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

“To be part of a 75th anniversary is al-ways special, but to be part of amemorialevent for that period of time is really spe-cial.”

So says Barrie Jones, treasurer andchorister of the Cape Welsh Choir. Theall-male group will be presenting a reallyspecial concert to commemorate the 75thanniversary of the Battle of Britain onWednesday 28 October.

The choir has been presenting an annu-al commemorative concert at the Simon’sTown Naval Base Church for about thelast 15 years and has a long-standing rela-tionshipwith the organisers, the RAFAs-sociation of South Africa.With the 75th anniversary being “quite

a milestone”, this year’s concert will besomething extra special.“For us it’s a big departure,” Barrie

says, explaining that they would normal-ly go on stage and sing in the Welsh malevoice choir style. This time round, theCape Welsh Choir has put a full produc-tion or showcase together in the spirit ofreflecting the “era and circumstances” ofthe period around World War II.

The concert takes place against thebackdrop of a specially-built set that rec-reates a typical bomb shelter in the Lon-don underground, with the choir dressedin clothes typical of the era.“It sounds dramatic maybe, but they

were hard times, so there are no pinkshirts, for example. It’s all very staid,working-class stuff.”

They’ll be singing medleys of a selec-tion of well-known songs from the time.

“All of those songswereused to embold-en that spirit of resistance.”

Barrie explains that music was used inWorldWar II tounifyBritain.Manyof thesongs were popularised by “the force’s

sweetheart”, Vera Lynn.SouthAfrican soloist Yvette Elliottwill

be bringing Lynn’s songs to life, completewith period costumes. For a bit of varia-tion, they’ll be joined by the “rousing”Cape Field Artillery Pipes and Drums aswell as guests from the UK: The RAF Sa-lon Orchestra with their big band soundand the Queen’s Colour Squadron withtheir precision marching display.All of this will be neatly threaded to-

gether with a “well-constructed” narra-tive put together by Reverend RalphThornley, a keen amateur historian.“He’s got a wealth of information andknowledge.”Thornley tells the story of the four

months of the Battle of Britain, inter-spersed with audio-visual clips to helprecreate the atmosphere around the war.“I think it’s going to be a very special

occasion,”Barrie says, adding: “It’s goingto be a once in a lifetime opportunity.”Made up of members from all over the

Cape Peninsula, the Cape Welsh Choirhas presented more than 800 concerts inits 33-year existence. “So, we’ve got a fewmilestones of our own.”While theaverageageof the choirmem-

bers is 50-plus, they are always lookingfornewandyoungermembers anduse ev-ery concert as a recruitment opportunity.Anyone interested in joining the choir

can contact chairperson Graham Tenni-son on 021 696 1716 or 073 463 1028.Two performances take place at the

Claremont civic centre on Wednesday 28October at 15:00 and 19:30. Tickets fromComputicket cost R120 and R150 each forthe respective performances and pro-ceeds will go towards the RAF (SA) Be-nevolent Fund.V For more information about the Cape WelshChoir, visit capewelshchoir.co.za or find them on Fa-cebook.

A sizzling volley, 25 yards from goal bydefender Lwandile Soboyise liftedYoung Idols to its maiden Coca-Cola

Cup crown at the Athlone Stadium on Satur-day.TheManenberg outfit waswrapped in glo-

ry after 90minutes of thrilling soccer as theysaw off an equally determined Milan United2-1 in the lucrative Safa Cape Town knock-out competition.The competition is modelled after the

iconic English FA Cup, attracting 532 ama-teur teams throughout the region.Young Idols’ ability to show off its prow-

ess, in which the team members dished upsome silky moves, probably signified theirhunger andwillingness to produce the goodsto walk away as champions.Milano United was not completely out of

it, but the team was not as effective as itsYoung Idols counterpart, playing good soc-cer, but in thewrongareas.Wheneventuallygiven the opportunity to score twice throughstriker Fawaaz Basadien, they failed to con-vert their chances into goals.That squared chances in which their

coach Desmond Crowie shook his head invain.The boys in the white and green shirts

were spurred on by the brass band from theManenberg community. Like a 12th man,the band lifted the players. The moment of

magic arrived in the 73rd minute whenLwandile Soboyise put up his hand, whizzedpast the first two defenders before turninghis body in and out of the next fourmarkers.He thenunleashed from25mavolley that leftMilano United’s custodian Kyle Johnsonclutching invisible straw.That turned out to be the decisive match-

winner that had theR35000 prize and the tro-phy engraved in Young Idols’ name on a ped-estal.While Crowie and hisMilano players’ nos-

es were left buried in the turf – shocked anddisappointed, they still earned R20 000.The three Coca-Cola Cup finals:
