Zumba for a good cause Zumba enthusiasts joined Cindy Abrahams, a professional Zumba instructor from Bergvliet, for an hour-long Zumbathon in aid of the upgrade and expansion of the emergency centre at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital on Saturday 26 October. Participants paid R30 each to practice their dance moves from 08:30 onwards, at an open field at the hospital in Rondebosch. The annual event, organised by the Children’s Hospital Trust, raised R4 200. The Children’s Hospital Trust thanks the public who attended for their support.

Teen drinking off the rails NETTALIE VILJOEN

ynberg police station has been receiving reports and photos of drunk high school learners hanging around in large groups at the Wynberg railway station and surrounding parks. Capt Silvino Davids says because the train station forms part of a main public transport interchange, many learners from different schools in the surrounding area, and some from as far afield as Cape Town, meet here after school to party. “It is especially bad on Fridays (when schools dismiss early),” says Davids. “We suspect they bring alcohol from home or they might get their older friends to buy it for them.” So far there have been no cases of learners being attacked or sexually assaulted while

under the influence, but the police are concerned that it is only a matter of time. Davids says the learners are making themselves vulnerable to attack. “They can be robbed or physically assaulted. There are also females involved,” he says. A couple of months back, the police station called for a meeting with various school principals to discuss an action plan to address the problem. Since then it has been holding blits operations, three to five times a week. “Police officers in three to four patrol cars meet with representatives from the schools at interchanges from 07:00 onwards. We drive around the area, looking for learners suspected of drinking alcohol,” Davids explains. He says when they started, the patrol cars would go out Mondays to Fridays, but now

they mix it up. “It’s worked well. As soon as the learners see us coming, they disperse. Reported incidents have gone down.” Davids says, with learners now writing exams, the occurrence of these ad-hoc parties has further decreased. “On the days when they aren’t writing, the kids stay home, so there are fewer chances for them to meet. It is quiet at the moment,” he says. Wynberg police station has arranged for another meeting with school representatives towards the end of the term. “We need steps to be in place before the start of the new school year,” says Davids. According to a school representative, who spoke to People’s Post on condition of anonymity, residents who live opposite the park down Burns have complained bitterly about the binge drinking after school. “Whenever the police is around at the ter-

minus, they simply move 250m down the road and continue their drinking.” Another school spokesperson says the consumption of alcohol isn’t the only problem. “(There is also) the smoking of dagga by many learners. It has become so blatant that learners drink (alcohol) and smoke weed on school premises and even while walking home with no regards for the public. When confronted for smoking, learners say ‘the government made it legal’.” According to the spokesperson, the consuming of alcohol by learners has also become prevalent among younger learners, especially Grade 8 and 9, aged 14 to 15 years. “The problem also stems from parents who don’t take responsibility for their children. It makes things very difficult for educators,” says the spokesperson.

Members of the public can now report anonymous crime tips through the new My Saps mobile app. The police, in partnership with Vodacom, have officially launched the app which allows users access to several features. These include the submission of crime tip-offs anonymously through the app, locating the nearest police station or vulnerable services facilities and sending emergency messages when in danger. To access the platform, users need to first register and create a profile. Once this has been done, a directory of police stations and nearby social service facilities will be provided. When a tip-off is given using the app, users are given the option to report the crime anonymously. They are required to identify the type of incident and supply details of the event, suspect information, as well as any other information that can assist the police. The information will be used to assist the police in creating a profile on alleged suspects. Users are provided with a reference number and the ability to supply further information about the crime or to follow up on the police’s progress. Victims of crime are still required to register a case at a police station for investigation and insurance claims. V The app is available for smartphones from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Feature phone users can also use the USSD string *134*10111# to access the crime tip-off line.

BERGVLIET

School raises R25k for Black Mambas Bergvliet High has partnered with the Power of 2000, a crowdfunding platform, which aims to motivate 2 000 people to donate R100 each to fund a motor vehicle for the Black Mambas – an anti-poaching unit active in the Balule Nature Reserve. The school has raised R25 000 towards the Power of 2000 through a school-based fundraising campaign in which all learners participated. Principal Stephen Price says the school is the only one which is currently supporting this initiative. “We are extremely proud of our WomanUp and Green Club service groups who have teamed up to support the Black Mambas and the preservation of the white rhino. We encourage other schools to match or beat our R25 000 to help push the Power of 2000 towards its R200 000 target.” Founded in 2013 to protect the Olifants West region of the reserve, the Black Mambas today protects all boundaries of the

52 000ha reserve which forms part of the Kruger National Park. Price explains the unit’s teams work to the concept of the “broken window” philosophy, striving to make their area of influence the most undesirable, most difficult and least profitable place to poach any animal species. “The objectives of the Black Mambas project are not only the protection of rhinos through boots on the ground but also through being a role model in their communities. These 13 young women and one man want their communities to understand that the benefits are greater through rhino conservation rather than poaching, addressing the social and moral decay that is a product of the rhino poaching within their communities,” he says. They are responsible for all costs such as training, uniforms, equipment, food, vehicles, fuel and other daily operational expenses associated with the Black Mambas.

Bergvliet High School encourages other schools to match or beat the R25 000 it raised, in partnership with Power of 2000, for the Black Mambas anti-poaching unit.

Share the joy of Christmas The Diep River Victim Friendly facility will host a Christmas Party for about 20 underprivileged families from Victoria Lodge this year, and is asking community members or businesses for their help. “Christmas is a special time to celebrate with those you love, but not everyone can experience the magic of the festive season. This Christmas donation appeal gives private individuals and businesses the chance to share joy, hope and change with vulnerable communities,” says Fiona Schwimmbacher of Diep River community policing forum (CPF).

he City of Cape Town is currently processing an application to consolidate Erf 68983 (30 Kent Road) and Erf 68984 (26 Park Road) located in Wynberg East. City’s Mayco member for spatial planning and environment, Marian Nieuwoudt, says objections have been received and a report is being compiled for the municipal planning tribunal to make a decision on the application. “The applicant, in responding to objections, has indicated that there is no proposed development on the properties yet,” Nieuwoudt says. In response to residents’ concerns raised at a Wynberg East Civic Association (Weca) meeting held at the Wynberg Youth Centre on Thursday 17 (“Development concerns”, People’s Post 22 October), Nieuwoudt as-

sures residents that any building proposal will strictly adhere to the process of building development management. “The development management scheme will equally protect the rights of the surrounding neighbours,” she says. Wynberg East residents had gathered to discuss the increasing occurrence of singleunit homes being sold and demolished in the area. A rumour that apartment blocks were set to rise in their place had raised many questions surrounding the possible impact such developments may have on the community. Nieuwoudt explains that a large percentage of properties in this area are zoned as general residential (GR4) which permits blocks of flats as of right. “Properties in this area are mostly underutilised in terms of their GR4 zoning rights. Public participation is usually called for when additional property or development rights are applied for. Buildings which are in line with their zoning rights and development rules, as set out in the Municipal Planning Bylaw’s development management scheme, are not required to be advertised,” she says. The additional strain on the area’s sewerage system, which, residents said, was very old and decaying, was another one of these concerns. Nieuwoudt says development charges and additional rates and service charges collected from new developments that need to apply for additional rights, such as rezoning, subdivisions, consolidations and so on, are used to upgrade services. “All land use and building plan applications are circulated to the various service branches who will ensure that adequate services are provided on site by the developer as well as there being sufficient bulk services available in the area to accommodate new developments.” In answer to the question whether flat developments would increase traffic further in an already congested area, Nieuwoudt says a portion of this area falls in a public

transport 1 and public transport 2 area – being close to Wittebome and Wynberg stations and transport routes. “Because of the provision of public transport, the area has reduced parking requirements,” she says. Residents were also concerned future developments would negatively impact the value of their properties and that the influx of people, combined with the planned Wynberg interchange, could lead to an increase in crime. Nieuwoudt says new developments generally enhance the value of properties. “(With regards to a rise in crime), this shouldn’t be the case as new developments need to align with urban design and densification policies, encouraging ‘eyes on the street’ and increasing pedestrian numbers, thereby creating more vigilance and improved public safety.” In answer to whether the demolished homes (some of which, residents said, were more than 60 years old) shouldn’t have been considered as heritage sites, Nieuwoudt says: “All buildings that are older than 60 years require a permit from Heritage Western Cape as well as a permit in terms of the National Building Regulations.” At the Weca meeting, the association was given the mandate to meet with the developer and to report back to the community. A meeting was held on Thursday 24 October with the developer. Weca representatives who attended the meeting reported back to the association’s executive committee the following week, on Thursday 31 October. Judy Ferdenando, chair of Weca, says a feedback meeting will be arranged with the community shortly. “We are busy consulting with relevant parties,” she says. “As soon as we have secured the meeting hall, we will communicate the date for the feedback meeting through social media groups.” V To get involved, visit Weca’s Facebook page or call Judy Ferdenando on 082 493 6076.

HOUSING

Demands handed to Simmers NETTALIE VILJOEN

OPTOMETRIST

he People’s Street Assembly on Social Housing, consisting of Communicare tenants gathered outside the provincial legislature in Wale Street, Cape Town, on Friday 25 October to hand over a memorandum to the provincial minister for Human Settlements, Tertius Simmers. The group were from Communicare units in Rondebosch, Brooklyn, Ruyterwacht and Thornton. Simmers was delivering his annual report for 2018/19 to an oversight committee. During the meeting, Simmers said the policy of the province was that pensioners of social housing were not allowed to pay more than 30% of their income towards rent and that social housing rentals could not be market-related. Asked for clarity, the department said residents “often use the term ‘social housing’ incorrectly.” “All tenants (including the elderly) within a social housing development enter into a lease agreement, which will stipulate annual rental increases. The respective lease agreement of any tenant will thus reflect the annual increase.” Marcellino Martin, spokesperson for Simmers, said they would respond to the memorandum. “We’ve committed to responding within seven days for further engagement and to seek clarity,” said Martin. Neville Petersen, spokesperson for the Communicare Tenant Beneficiaries, said they wanted to lodge a grievance with the Western Cape Rental Housing Tribunal in Wale Street, however the office was closed.

“We’ve been informed they are having a sport’s day. This is unacceptable. As taxpaying members of society, we should have the right to lodge our complaints. No-one should have the right to shut down government services for pleasure,” said Petersen. Karabo Makgoane, acting chairman of Welverdiend Residence Forum, said tenants spent their meagre income to travel to the city to lodge their complaints, which included the possible demolition of Welverdiend, a Communicare-owned property, at Rouwkoop Avenue, Rondebosch. Communicare provides rental housing to a range of tenants including a portfolio of social rentals (properties rented at discounted rates). The non-profit organisation uses a cross-subsidisation model to keep some rentals down. It has no shareholders and surplus funds are ploughed back into the organisation. It combines the state’s capital grants and subsidies with surpluses from its commercially-viable residential property activities to finance the development of new social rentals. At present only two of its properties are classified as social housing developments: Gardens in Bothasig and Drommedaris in Brooklyn. In May last year Communicare established the private company GoodFind Properties to manage all units that are rented out at close to market rates. A process was started to transfer the management, leasing and tenant engagement of some of its properties to GoodFind. Communicare CEO, Anthea Houston (“Communicare explains”, People’s Post, 12 November 2018), has said that “any surpluses made by GoodFind Properties will be used by Communicare to add more units and to cross-subsidise our discounted rentals which we will also market under distinct brands”. Since the transfers, some tenants have complained of increases in rent and utility services. Demands handed over at the People’s Street Assembly included a request for the MEC of Housing Settlements’ intervention to resolve outstanding rental tribunal cases; an investigation into alleged inefficiencies at the tribunal; the expropriation of Communicare property and land; a halt to the Welverdiend demolition; for title deeds and homeownership to be awarded to current tenants and the scrapping of all rent arrears. . It was reported Welverdiend tenants were given six month’s notice to vacate apartments (“We won’t go, says residents’ forum”, People’s Post, 29 October). Communicare, however, has committed to giving tenants six months’ notice to vacate, prior to the building being demolished. The application for demolition is still in process. No date has been set for demolition. As yet, no tenant has been issued with a formal notice to vacate. People’s Post regrets the error.

SMILE WEEK

Patients have reason to smile NETTALIE VILJOEN

he daily debate in the office over the aircon’s ideal setting is something most can identify with, unless you are part of a burns and acute care surgery team. When operating on burn patients, the temperature has to be set at up to 35 ºC. Dr Gary Dos Passos, head of the burns unit at Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital, explains: “Patients with significant burns are prone to hypothermia. Their body temperature can drop within minutes. And the smaller the body, the more rapid the decline in body heat.” People’s Post spoke to the surgeon at a media briefing during the launch of Smile Week which ran from 28 to 31 October at the hospital. The event is a partnership between the Smile Foundation and South African pharmaceutical company, Adcock Ingram, to – in cooperation with the country’s academic hospitals – “put the smile back on children’s faces” with corrective facial reconstructive surgery and treatments. Starting last Monday, Dos Passos and Dr Saleigh Adams, head of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the hospital, performed life-changing surgery on 10 children. Five of them were burn victims. South Africa, because of a variety of socioeconomic factors, has a high occurrence of serious injuries due to burning. Theatre time is one of the major challenges at the moment. Consequently, life-saving procedures are prioritised while secondary surgeries are deferred to long waiting lists. Dos Passos says initiatives like Smile Week play an invaluable role in alleviating the cost of expensive surgeries that greatly

improve the quality of patients’ lives. The exposure also helps the public understand how big the problem is. “Advanced burn dressing is expensive. Theatre time is expensive. Burn patients also have to spend a fair amount of time in ICU after surgery. That too is expensive,” says Dos Passos. Something else few realise is how physically taxing the treatment of burn patients can be. Besides the high temperature in operating rooms, patients also have to be picked up and moved to access and treat the various parts of the body that suffered burn wounds. Combine that with the hours spent in surgery (about 15 hours in a good week) plus the psychological strain and it is easy to understand why burn surgeons, especially, are warned to guard against burnout. Dos Passos is quick to point out, however, that working with burn patients is also incredibly rewarding. At the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital, a child with burns over 40% of his or her body has an 80 to 90% chance of survival, where elsewhere in the country his or her chance is much less. “When you see patients with injuries that in other parts of the continent would most likely have meant a death sentence, and you can help them heal and go home . . . I can’t describe the positive emotion it generates,” he says. Chrissie, a 10-year-old boy with severe burns, was one of the patients who received surgery last week. He sustained burn wounds to 44% of his body including his chest, back, arms and head in 2017 while playing outside in the backyard of his home in Mpumalanga.

PHOTO: NETTALIE VILJOEN Moira Gerszt, the operations director of the Smile Foundation, says the NPO is excited to be playing a key role in Chrissie’s burn recovery. “We aim to assist as many children in need as possible. Smile Foundation’s partnership with Adcock Ingram dates back to 2010, and thanks to their support, we have been able to make a major difference in the lives of many children. We are also grateful to the doctors and staff at the Red Cross War Me-

morial Children’s Hospital for providing the infrastructure, expertise and treatment required for these surgeries,” she says. Other surgeries performed last week included cleft palate repair for three of the children, including a 10-month-old baby, tissue expansion in the leg and scalp, lip revision, corrective septorhinoplasty, and skin and fat grafts.

Men to strut their stuff in first plus size fashion show NOMZAMO YUKU @NomzamoYuku Plus-size men are invited to a #PlusIs Equal casting show – the first of its kind – taking place at The Radisson Red Hotel at the V&A Waterfront on Saturday 9 November. Casting will be from 10:00 to 12:00, followed by the deliberations from 12:00 to 14:00. The event aims to raise awareness and inspire bigger men to be comfortable and confident in their bodies. Leonie Andereya, a curator at the hotel, says: “We see this as not only an opportunity to create awareness around representation and equality but to also potentially launch or further someone’s career. If it’s not a modelling career one is after, then it’s the chance to be heard and make history. Every voice counts.” Andereya explains that there is no specific entry criteria. All over 18s are welcome and there is also no height restriction. She says it is open to any gentleman who is full-bodied, full-figured or considered larger. “The campaign is looking for real men. They can arrive dressed in anything they feel comfortable in and no headshots or portfolio shots are required,” says Andereya. Twelve of the participating men will get a chance to model a new plus-size men’s range designed by a secret designer. Jade Campbell, a fashion designer and an advocate for plus-size men, says this is an attempt to close the gap on how plus-size women are portrayed and catered for in comparison to men. He says men need their voices to be heard and to be represented in the market. Campbell says that he was once 28kg overweight and felt frustrated every time he went shopping. He loved fashion but could not find anything to his taste. Campbell learned to be proud of his body and to have a positive mindset. He then scored a rare gig to be a plus-size model and never looked back. As an advocate for plus-size men, his favourite inspirational line is: “If you look good, you feel good.”

He says there are opportunities for men to get recognised. “We are not seen, nobody sees us. The focus is on women and as men, we need to get the message across,” he says. TJ Ngoma, actor and body positivity advocate, says there is still a lot that needs to be done to create awareness and build a confident, plus-sized male society. He says even the #PlusIsEqual campaign is mostly

supported by women. Sharing his personal story, Ngoma says he has always been bigger than his peers. “For example, at the age of nine, I was already wearing a size 13 to 14 years’ clothes. My journey was an up and down one until I got tired and started doing something to change the way I think,” says Ngoma. He says changing your mindset is a big step. For him, it is not about health, but

rather body positivity and self-respect. “Be the change you want to see, start sharing your images or those of other ordinary men instead of models. By doing so, people will start to admire and respect us for who we are.” V To attend the casting or for more information on the movement, email red@20across.com or visit the #PlusIsEqual casting call event page on Facebook: PlusIsEqual Casting Call.

MEN’S HEALTH

Hair, hair for Movember month S

ome of our male friends, family members or work colleagues may start to look a little less well-groomed than usual, this being the fifth day of Movember. But not to worry. The progressively growing facial hair is all for a good cause: to raise awareness about and to tackle men’s health issues. “Men are facing a health crisis that isn’t being talked about. We have to make a stand and stop men dying too young, before their time,” says Garron Gsell, chief executive and founder of the Men’s Foundation, which manages the Movember campaign in South

Africa under license from the Global Movember Foundation. In SA, prostate cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in men, while male suicide accounts for approximately 18 deaths a day. “We have a long way to go until no man dies of these diseases. Our sons, partners, fathers, brothers and friends are facing these challenges and we need your help,” says Gsell. The City of Cape Town’s health department joins the call for men to prioritise their health and seek help earlier rather than later. Mayco member for community services

and health, Zahid Badroodien says historically men account for the smallest percentage of clients to public healthcare facilities. “City Health and its partners have done a lot of good work to overcome these barriers to entry, and it is starting to show in the statistical indicators.” The interventions include the piloting of male-only clinics and an increase in education and awareness efforts in general. The number of men testing and receiving treatment for sexually transmitted illnesses (STIs) has seen an encouraging increase over the past two years, from an average of

just over 1 000 cases a month in July 2017, to an average of nearly 2 500 cases a month in May 2019. However, Badroodien cautions that men’s health is not sexual health alone. “There are also many non-communicable disease challenges that we face as a city, and as a country, like hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and mental health,” he says. City health offers free blood pressure and blood glucose screening at all of its facilities, along with tuberculosis screening and treatment, and HIV counselling, testing and treatment (HCT).

The provincial minister of community safety, Albert Fritz, is appealing to the acting provincial commissioner, Sindile Mfazi, to immediately revoke the instruction to station commanders that community policing forum (CPF) elections should not go ahead. This follows the deputy provincial commissioner, major general Mpumelelo Manci, and the provincial electoral officer, Reverend Courtney Sampson, officially pledging their support to the directives on Thursday 5 September. The signing of the directives marked the official beginning of the CPF elections to be held at annual general meetings across the province between September and December this year. Fritz said: “As a result of the direct instruction given to all SAPS station commanders, by the acting provincial commissioner, namely that they ‘should not proceed with elective AGMs’, the department of community safety cannot continue to officiate over such

AGMs until the instruction is withdrawn (Police Letter under reference 26/3/5/2 dated 29 October 2019). “The message sent to CPFs stating that the department is withdrawing its support of CPFs, is untrue and an attempt to divide the department from CPFs at the station level. The department’s decision to withdraw from AGM’s is temporary and only in response to the instruction given by the acting provincial commissioner,” says Fritz. He further says: “The department has requested, at the highest levels, that the police leadership urgently find an amicable solution. “CPFs are, bylaw, required to be ‘inclusive’ of all legitimate community structures. It is unfortunate that the dysfunctionality of a few CPF structures has now impacted on all other CPFs.” Under the leadership of Fritz, the department remains committed to facilitating and overseeing successful CPF elections throughout the province.
