Through the awards, now in its fourth year, People’s Post, TygerBurger and City Vision, in partnership with Spec-Savers, aim to honour those awesome elders who are making a profound difference in their communities. He, or she, could be the older, active neighbourhood watch patroller walking the streets at 04:00, feeding the children in their street, driving the sick to the clinic, knitting beanies and blankets for unwanted babies or giving free boxing lessons to keep the youth off the streets, all out of their own pockets. Tell us what wonderful deeds they’ve done for their community.

CBD

Plans to strengthen healthcare systems T

CASH OFFER

he provincial minister for Health Nomafrench Mbombo hopes the signing of a Presidential Health Compact will help improve the healthcare system from a grassroots level. Mbombo shared her hopes during a media briefing held at the provincial offices in the central business district (CBD) on Tuesday 30 July. She said the province on its own cannot sustain quality healthcare services due to a lack of financial support. She said the budget for the province has been decreased by R9bn over the past three years. She said the collaborative initiative would not just benefit the government but mostly the public at large, especially those who cannot afford private healthcare. Mbombo said: “When you look at the bailouts that treasury gives to stateowned enterprises, you will never hear of a bailout for the health department and because of budget cuts, health facilities cannot afford to employ more staff. We have a shortage of staff.”

When the idea was introduced, the department saw an opportunity to improve the state of health for all and decided to put the political conflicts aside and “do what is right”. “It is all about the people, not our egos. Hence we volunteered to work with the national government,” said Mbombo. She said the province will be convening a consultative forum with stakeholders on Thursday 5 September towards strengthening the health system by achieving universal health coverage. Mbombo said their approach would be three-fold: a plan for health system strengthening, a policy response to National Health Insurance and becoming a laboratory for the universal health coverage for learning from practice. Mbombo said: “We are already putting in place plans to learn from publicprivate collaborations in two areas: Saldanha Bay Municipality and Klipfontein Sub-district. “There is progress in inter-provincial collaboration for joint learning-related health system strengthening.” Mbombo acknowledged that the pro-

vincial health department has been overburdened since the rise in violent crimes, especially in the Cape Flats. She said a recent study at Groote Schuur Hospital indicated that the treatment of each victim shot costs the department between R22 000 to R25 000; and with the on-going violence, the problem was not only overcrowding and long waiting periods but to maintain and keep things afloat. Mbombo said it is for these reasons that joint efforts are important – not only by the government and relevant stakeholders, but by the public as well. She said examples of how the public could help included efforts to prevent teenage pregnancies; interventions to stop gang violence through working with authorities; and having private sectors establish means of providing healthcare systems within their organisations. She said more manageable numbers could provide relief on resources, lighten the burden on staff and assure that funds go towards the continuous improvement of healthcare.

Human beings ‘a threat to rangers’ NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku

outh African National Parks (Sanparks) has begun the process to deploy 120 tourism monitors to various parks after a spate of attacks on rangers and tourists in the Cape region. The announcement was made during the annual World Rangers Day event held at Mouille Point in Sea Point on Wednesday 31 July. The day commemorated the rangers who died or were injured in the line of duty and

celebrated the role rangers play in the conservation of nature. The event was held just a few days after the fatal attack on Ukrainian tourist, Ivan Ivanon (43), who was stabbed at East Fort, Chapman’s Peak Drive, in Hout Bay on

Saturday 27 July. Sanparks managing executive of parks Senzeni Mokoena said the incident is one of many alarming attacks that have happened in the parks. He said it had become evident that human

beings were more of a threat to rangers than the animals and that interventions were necessary. He said that rangers stood up to poachers daily in efforts to stop the illegal poaching of rhino horns, abalone and the removal of indigenous plants. Mokoena said the training programme was funded by the national departments of tourism. After completing the training, safety rangers will be stationed in all Cape Region parks. “The programme is a great opportunity, preparing young men and women to grow within the organisation and allowing them to learn new skills for the job market,” said Mokoena. He said Sanparks would tighten its relations with the City of Cape Town’s law enforcement, neighbourhood watches, police, CapeNature, and other security agencies. He also said that this measure was important to ensure the safety of the rangers because they played a crucial role in preserving and conserving natural assets that boost the economy. Mthabatha Matjila, a section ranger at Table Mountain National Park (TMNP), said that working at an open-access national park was challenging as the public did not understand the importance of obeying the rules of the parks. Matjila said such an event was a reminder that the preservation of biodiversity remained important, and that the Rangers show how arrests of abalone poachers are made.

Shelter safety to be addressed SIPHESIHLE NOTWABAZA @SihleMusic In an effort to get the government’s attention and to tend to safety concerns of shelters in the province, Western Cape Women’s Shelter Movement (WCWSM) marched to parliament on Tuesday 23 July. They handed over a memorandum of demands to the national minister of Department of Social Development (DSD), Lindiwe Zulu, highlighting the need for funds to improve the state of shelters for abused women in the province. The physical structures and the livelihoods of those who work in the shelters need a financial boost. The movement works hand-in-hand with National Shelter Movement of South Africa (NSM), which has one mission; to advocate for rights of shelter workers and to fight

for recognition of the work shelters do. The WCWSM’s plan to pay the parliament a visit was inevitable but the release of a report by the Commission for Gender Equality (CGE) gave them more impetus. The report is titled “Investigative Report: State of Shelters in South Africa”. In a statement, the WCWSM said the report confirmed that shelters provided critical services to abused women, but that the movement had been unfairly treated by the national government when it came to financial support. “(Our efforts) are severely hampered as a result of chronic under-funding and highly variable subsidies provided by provincial DSD for shelters across the country,” the statement read.

X1PUFEKR-QK160118

Protesters say shelters should be supported by government equally.

The protest was joined by residents from Lansdowne, Manenberg and Ottery. Joy Lange, an executive member of NSM, was one of the protesters who braved the weather. She said the aim was for them as shack workers and managers to stand together and be a united voice. She said Zulu accepted their memorandum in which they detailed different demands and due dates. “She promised to look at our demands and to find integrated ways with relevant departments to play an integral role in finding solutions,” explained Lange. One of their demands to the national government was for it to create a balanced method of treating shelters. They are referring to government-managed shelters and non-governmental organisation (NPO) managed shelters. They alleged that there was an imbalance in terms of resources and payments. Their demands also included a shelter manager for each shelter, a social worker for each shelter, three house mothers for each shelter and an administrator for each shelter. Lange said funds were dwindling as the businesses that usually sponsored them were closing down. Also present at the protest was Bernadine Bachar, chairperson of WCWSM and director of Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children. Bachar said they needed the DSD and national treasury to urgently address the gaps within the shelter funding structure and for it to be done uniformly. “It does not make sense that in one province, shelters get as little as R9 per person, per day to meet the needs of women residing at shelters, while in another province shelters get up to R71. And, of course, without enough funds, shelters are unable to offer the programmes that survivors of abuse need to heal and move forward,” she said.

School does its bit for the environment NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku

many people as possible involved, starting with their fellow learners. Iona van der Westhuizen, a member, said they have opened the clean-up operations to all who would like to get involved, share their announcements or advertise their initiatives. Van der Westhuizen said they are slowly gaining more support from other schools and the public. The club also ensures each class has an eco-friendly bin where learners can dump their trash. The eco-warriors sort the waste and identify those items suitable for recycling. A local company collects the recyclable waste for free. For the members, it is such a relief knowing that, even though the school is close to the beach, they do not pose a threat to marine life. The club is also planning to participate in the annual school strike for climate change on Friday 20 September. Their long-term plan is to remove the use of plastic at the school. They are in discussions to come up with plans of executing this initiative without inconveniencing anyone.

amps Bay High School is determined to play its role in protecting and promoting a healthy environment. The school’s Eco-Warriors Environmental Club embarked on their fourth beach clean-up on Thursday 25 July. Princess Beach, the area right in front of the school’s premises, was selected for the clean-up and the results were astonishing. Kathleen Drew, the head of the club, said they removed plenty of micro (small) plastics, lollypop sticks, sweet wrappers and cigarette butts. “It is amazing how much trash you can collect in a short time. These items are particularly harmful to animals who mistake them for food,” Drew said. She said it began to rain just as everyone started to get into it. The club has 38 members dedicated to establishing solutions to environmentally threatening situations. They hope to get as

Kids to shine in circus NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku

he public is urged to see ordinary children do extraordinary things at the second edition of The Greatest Little Circus on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 August. The Salt River-based Zip Zap Academy has created a platform for children to shine through the one and a half-hour-long show at 12:00 and 16:00, happening at the academy’s dome. Choreographer, Christine Chapman says the show revolves around a movie called The Greatest Showman. “We all loved the movie. It illustrates how circus started and we are all where we are today, because of

traditional circus. “It is a fun, light-hearted show and exudes lots of energy. It’s ideal for the whole family and highly entertaining,” says Chapman. She added that the circus encourages kids to “dare to dream to see what they can achieve”. They work as a team to achieve a common goal. “Passion and perseverance pay off,” Chapman says, as she feels the young performers earned this opportunity. “We always choose about a quarter of our performers to feature in the shows. This all depends on how hard they work, and we try to give them all a chance in the spotlight. At the end of the day, all the kids at Zip Zap have great skills and they all deserve a

chance in the spotlight,” she adds. Zip Zap Academy offers free programmes to participants, to nurture and help young people to realise their talent. It has been around for 27 years. They get split into groups depending on their advancement, with the older and more advanced members moving to a group called the Zappers. According to Chapman, at this stage, the performers get training to focus more on their specialities, rather than doing all the different acts, to get them ready for the professional stage and getting them focused on pursuing a career in the art of circus.

Yoga-reading sessions at library NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku

ombined yoga and reading sessions are being offered at the Colin Eglin Sea Point Public Library in Sea Point. Local yoga instructor Jill Balcomb volunteered her services for the free sessions which take place every Thursday from 14:00. Children from various schools in the neighbourhood can attend. The aim is to calm children and encourage them to focus. At the end of the 45-minute yoga session, Balbomb briefly reads from a library book. Senior librarian Katherine Moon says the reading sessions held by Balcomb is a bonus as it helps encourage reading among the children and plays a crucial role in reducing illiteracy, “which we all know is still a problem in South Africa”.

Gina Beukes takes a bow in Cape Town Gina Beukes, known for her inimitable musical style and mastery of the violin and viola, will grace a Cape Town stage for the first time in two decades on 10 August. Beukes, currently the solo violist at opera Ballet Vlaanderen in Belgium, will treat Baxter Concert Hall audience members to a unique multi-media programme entitled: Chopin, a Lover, a War and an Astronaut. The one-night-only performance forms part of the Cape Town Concert Series in cel-

ebration of Women’s Day. She will be partnered by pianist Esthea Kruger. With works for violin and viola written by or inspired by women, Beukes will take the audience on a journey from the story of Chopin’s lover, George Sands, to the first woman to go into space; with storytelling and video projections to add to the music. Beukes, formerly concertmaster of the Cape Town Symphony Orchestra and principal second violin of the London Philharmonic and violist in the London Sympho-

ny, graduated from the Juilliard with an MMus. Kruger, a prize-winning South African pianist, was awarded her doctorate from the University of North Texas and a second master’s degree in Germany. She was recently appointed to the teaching staff of the South African College of Music. The concert, which starts at 19:30, is dedicated to the memory of Huberte Rupert, the philanthropist whose generosity enabled

many talented South African artists to become renowned performers. The Rupert Music Foundation has also made it possible for chamber music to be performed on the Cape Town Concert Series’ recital platform. V Tickets range from R160 to R190 and are available from Webtickets http://bit.ly/CTCS12019 or the Baxter Theatre Centre Box Office on the night of the concert.

Tevin Campbell shares his light NETTALIE VILJOEN Multi-Grammy nominated Tevin Campbell will always be in the hearts of a group of patients and parents at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital. The American singer, songwriter and actor, who was in Cape Town for Marmalade Productions 10th Anniversary concert, visited the hospital on Monday 28 July, to do his 67 minutes for Madiba. Having performed at the sold-out show held at GrandWest Arena the night before, Campbell took time out of his busy schedule to highlight the Children’s Hospital Trust’s Leave Your Mark on Life Campaign. It aims to raise R150 million by 2020, and the trust is appealing to the pub-

lic to help contribute towards the outstanding amount which currently sits at R68 million. According to the publicist of Marmalade Productions, André Gail Gilbertson, Campbell felt that even though Mandela Day was on 18 July, he still wanted to do something to honour the day. “Monday was his only day off during his tour of South Africa, but Campbell wanted to spend it at Red Cross Children’s Hospital and he did it with love,” she said. He arrived at the hospital where he was met by hospital and the Children’s Hospital Trust representatives who introduced him to this unique hospital, the first standalone tertiary hospital in sub-Saharan Africa, dedicated to children. He also spent time at RX Radio,

Red Cross Children’s Hospital’s radio station by and for children, before moving on to a hospital waiting room where he met with a group of young patients and their very excited parents. “When he walked into the room he brought light and happiness to a situation that can be very scary for children and parents. Most of the kids didn’t know who he was but that didn’t stop them from warming to him immediately as he talked, sang and coloured-in with them,” said Gilbertson. Dr Matodzi Mukosi, chief executive officer (CEO) of Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital said: “We are thankful for the trust and a community of generous donors who have committed to the upgrade of our emergency centre.”

Help Blisters to fight pollution T

he number of plastic water sachets to be handed out to walkers at this year’s Blisters for Bread will be substantially reduced. Instead, participants are encouraged to bring along their own water bottles which they can fill up at various mobile water trailers along the route. Petrina Pakoe, director of the Peninsula School Feeding Association (PSFA), says this is one of their contributions to a more environmentally friendly community. “PSFA is extremely concerned about the increase of plastic pollution and this is our small contribution towards a global movement to becoming a plastic-free society.” PSFA will also be partnering with Sasko and various private schools in the greater Cape Town area, where the learners at these schools will be encouraged to bring bread bags to school and place them in a special Sasko/Blisters for Bread

box for recycling. The participating schools will be rewarded with books which will in turn be donated to schools in PSFA’s feeding programme. Blisters for Bread, in association with Lucky Star, takes place at the Green Point Cricket Club on Sunday 25 August. Walkers can take part in one of two routes along the Sea Point Promenade – a 10km that starts at 07:30 and a 5km that starts at 08:00. Every person who enters will receive a medal. South Africa’s pop sensations Paxton and Jarrad Ricketts will be performing live at the finish line. The entry fee is R60 per person. Each entry helps PSFA feed 24 school children with a nutritious cooked breakfast and lunch for an entire day. Enter online at www.psfa.org.za.

The University of Cape Town (UCT) Yacht Club entered the Lipton Cup Challenge.

Lipton Cup Challenge sails into Table Bay The Lipton Cup Challenge is currently taking place at the Royal Cape Yacht Club finishing on Saturday 10 August. This year, 10 boats with 80 crew from around the country are participating in the race, which takes place offshore of Table Bay Harbour and Granger Bay. It is also recognised as the national inter-club yachting event. “Many of the country’s top sailors who are competing interna-

tionally have flown to Cape Town to take part in this competition which always attracts SA’s best sailors. “This speaks to the prestige of the Lipton Cup and its rich history associated with Cape Town,’ said Mayco member for transport Felicity Purchase. Being used for the first time in the race is the Cape 31, a 31-foot sport boat, designed by one of the World’s leading Yacht designers,

Mark Mills, and built here by local boat builders, mast, rigging and sail manufacturers. “The Lipton Cup is more than just a race, but has a trickledown effect in terms of economic impact. It provides an opportunity for local boat manufacturers to showcase their capabilities and assists the City in its objectives of creating an enabling environment to attract investment that generates economic growth, said Purchase.
