The busy Food Truck Drive Through in Noordhoek has been shut down for contravention of the Municipal Planning Bylaw of 2015. Organisers say they have applied for an events permit and are awaiting the response from the City.

T
he vendors at the popular Food Truck Drive Through in Noordhoek are eager to get the wheels of their businesses turning again, but their fate now lies in the hands of the City of Cape Town. People’s Post reported on the possible closure of the market which gained popularity during level two of the lockdown, when many of the vendors were struggling to make ends meet as a result of the lockdown restrictions (“Food Truck market may stall”, 6 October). After receiving a letter to cease trading on Friday 23 September, Steve Meighan – one of the market’s organisers – was informed that he had just 30 days for him and the other
vendors to close up shop. According to the notice, the market was in contravention of the Municipal Planning Bylaw of 2015, which states that the property is zoned rural and can not host an event of that sort. Meighan told People’s Post at the time that he was battling to navigate complex City regulations to find the correct avenue to keep the market open. “It took so much time to go through all the correct channels to get a hold of the right people (at the City) to tell me what I need to do,” he says. “What it boils down to is that we had to apply for an events permit.” Meighan says he handed in the application about two or three weeks after he received the notice but, he notes, he only received confirmation of receipt on Monday 16 November – a little more than three weeks after the market shut down on Friday 23 October.

everywhere at the moment. I am part of a franchise and the franchise fee has to be paid for, my stock has to be paid for and those things don’t come at a cheap price.” Meighan, who assisted Farmer in finding a new market where he can retail his goods, says: “We’re scrambling around to find places for them to be. (Our) market was for the vendors because they’ve got nothing else to fall back on.” Now many of them find themselves in a similar predicament, he explains. Meighan says he has been informed that it can take 15 to 21 business days for the events permit to be processed. Until then, the vendors wait optimistically for the return of the market, which, they say, enjoyed great community support. In the future, organisers are looking into the idea of opening two market locations to increase retail opportunities for vendors.

Patrick Farmer, a vendor at the market, says the lack of income is having a severe impact on him. “We’ve now been unproductive for about three or four weeks. Financially, it’s hitting us very, very hard. This is my main source of income after I was retrenched a few years ago,” says Farmer. He bought into the Mobile Coffee Café franchise after being retrenched and began selling from his food truck around the Peninsula. “Pre-Covid-19 we were doing quite well and then Covid-19 happened and everything came to a standstill; that was the first time I was shut down. Now we’ve been shut down again, so I stand at Neighbourhood Farms at Fish Hoek and my turnover was definitely not pretty,” he says. On a bad day at the Noordhoek market, he says he would sell 60 or 70 cups of coffee and over 100 cups on a good day. But now, he says: “I’m grasping at straws

People’s Post journalist Samantha Lee-Jacobs PHOTO: JUSTIN JACOBS
eople’s Post journalist Samantha Lee-Jacobs (28) has bagged the national award in the opinions category at the 2020 Vodacom Journalist of the Year awards (VJOY’s). The awards ceremony was held virtually on Friday 20 November where Lee-Jacobs represented the Western Cape region after winning the regional opinion category award at the regional virtual awards ceremony on Wednesday 11 November. The awards seek to recognise journalism excellence in the country across 12 categories. In its 19th year, the competition received a record number of 1 300 entries. Lee-Jacobs’s win was accredited to three columns published in both People’s Post (“Please just stop asking ‘when’ ”, “Breaking silence”) and TygerBurger (“Think twice before driving drunk”). The judges’ citation is: “Entries in this category covered many issues, mainly political but also the economy, sports and even religion. Many of these entries – while being well-written – offered views that were common in society and did not bring anything fresh to the debate at either a national or provincial level. Our national winner displayed a skill taking seemingly small issues and relating them to some of society’s important concerns such as sexual assault, peer pressure and drunk
driving.” Lee-Jacobs says: “In writing these columns, I was able to share a bit of myself, my personal life and my own experiences with some of society’s social ills with our readers. This was also the first time I had ever spoken out about a personal encounter with sexual assault which empowered me to help others. As community journalists, we have a special role to play in connecting with readers, while sharing news and views that matter. Having won awards for telling people’s inspiring stories before, it was especially amazing and a great honour to be awarded for the vulnerability in sharing my own story.” Thulani Magazi, People’s Post editor, praised Lee-Jacobs for the achievement. “Well done, Sammy. This wonderful accomplishment is an excellent stamp of approval on what community journalism is all about. You have consistently showed and proved that community journalism is truly alive by regularly collecting awards,” says Magazi. “Walking away with a national award against some of the country’s finest writers and newspapers is a huge achievement. We are truly proud of your achievement as it not only puts your name on the South African media landscape, but our beloved People’s Post too. Congratulations! Continue doing what you do best and love most.”

ADDICTION
Watch your relationship with liquor SAMANTHA LEE-JACOBS @Samantha_Lee121
“T
hey say the first step to recovery, is admitting you have a problem. My name is Jason, and I am an alcoholic.” These are words he never thought would be spoken, but with the hard lockdown and ban on the sales of liquor, Jason had found himself locked inside with copious amounts of liquor for weeks. “I borrowed money, made a loan to stock up on liquor for the lockdown. I was so worried I would not survive without a drink,” he says. A social drinker, he would drink on weekends with his friends or around a braai, but never did he think he had anything close to an alcohol addiction. But his dependency manifested itself during this time. “I would drink with a group of friends, but limited to the weekend and sometimes Thursdays. I look back now and realise that I never knew a limit. I would not stop until the last drop was finished from that bottle. Actually, all my friends are like that. We drink Fridays and Saturdays until we cannot stand and then have a few beers to cool down on Sundays before work,” he says. “During lockdown, I bought so many bottles, trays of beers, cheap and expensive, whatever I could find. I just did not want to run out. By the third week of lockdown, I had almost finished the stock on my own. I would get up every day, have beer or whiskey with my breakfast and drink close to a bottle of liquor a day.” His relationship with alcohol started at a young age, he says. “In coloured communities, we are exposed to drinking from a young age. The first few things you do wrong is sneak a parent’s cigarette or take a sip of an
open beer or wine. It doesn’t taste good at that age, but you all laugh and keep doing it because it’s naughty so it’s fun. We never realise that this influences us into our adulthood,” he says. “Getting drunk is so normal. At birthday parties, sneaking into clubs and bars and hanging out with older crowds are all normal; and drinking cheap wine, just to drink, is part of it.” When the lockdown was extended, he began to panic and was again looking at ways to replenish his dwindling stock. “I was stressed out and panicked. I was researching recipes for beer and looking for illegal sellers. I was no longer receiving my full salary. This stress, the separation and the pandemic made it all worse,” he says. “In May, I was drunk out of my mind. I can’t remember it myself. My family began to notice how bad my relationship with alcohol had become and decided to record me. It was 11:30 and I was falling around. I could not walk or think or speak. I had lost myself to the bottle. I had become my father and those drunk uncles we are scared of, but secretly admire,” he says. With a history of alcoholism in his family, Jason believes he should have seen the signs much sooner. Jason is now part of an outpatient treatment to help him deal with his dependency issues. “I was so worried that I would turn to other things like drugs,” he says. Sharna Fernandez, the provincial minister of social development, says there is help available for anyone struggling with addiction. “It takes a tremendous amount of courage to seek help for drug and alcohol addiction, however, it may not always feel that way for people going through the process. As the provincial department, we recognise that
providing assistance to individuals and families with drug and alcohol-related challenges is key to building the social fabric of our communities. There are many health and social consequences of drug and alcohol addiction and, in most cases, it can lead to the breakdown of families,” she says. She adds that addiction is a chronic brain dysfunction and that support is imperative in recovery. “Despite the intrinsic dignity in addiction recovery, the persistent stigma and judgment that substance abuse disorder (SUD) survivors face when they endeavour to put their lives
back together can be overwhelming and prevent them from moving forward, even leading to relapse,” she says. But for Jason, the lockdown had proven an unhealthy and irresponsible relationship with alcohol, and for many others who cannot see they have a problem. “If you borrowed money to buy alcohol, paid ridiculous prices from illegal sellers, made your own beer or drank every single day, then you have a problem.” V For help dealing with addiction, visit www.heretohelp.co.za, or the Department of Social Development’s hotline on 0800 220 250.

Schools go green T
he compounding effects of urbanisation on biodiversity as well as the inaccessibility of green spaces and their associated ecosystem services has motivated Greenpop to expand its Urban Greening programme to include the conservation of fynbos and other indigenous flora in Cape Town. Founded in 2010, Greenpop works to restore ecosystems and empower environmental stewards through reforestation, urban greening, sustainable development, and environmental art projects across subSaharan Africa. The organisation has, since its inception, planted over 136 000 trees and inspired over 150 000 active citizens across South Africa, Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania. Now, its Fynbos for the Future programme aims to inspire a green urban future where biodiversity is accessible, valued and protected by an active, engaged and inspired citizenry through community-oriented urban nature conservation. To achieve this, the programme creates interactive fynbos learning spaces in under-greened schools and has implemented a three-year programme engaging learners and communities in the effective management and conservation of fynbos. As part of its Fynbos programme, Greenpop is working with 10 under-resourced schools to plant water-wise fynbos gardens. These gardens will have many benefits, including: . Helping to reconnect urban biodiversity corridors. . Instilling a love of nature in learners. . Creating green space for learners. . Creating empowered environmental stewards. . Promoting water-wise practices, and . Encouraging active community en-
Greenpop has been turning urban spaces into green spaces at schools across Cape Town. PHOTO: GREENPOP/FACEBOOK gagement. In addition, the installation of fynbos gardens will provide numerous ecological benefits. Planting indigenous modular gardens (vertical gardens to make use of limited space) will help stabilise the soil and limit erosion; provide habitat to a wide variety of native fauna; increase biodiversity and thus resilience to environmental changes; provide habitat for pollinators, thus securing food resources; and act as air and water filtration, among others. Schools that form part of the programme include, among others, Mountain Road Primary School in Woodstock, Trafalgar High School in District Six, Strandfontein Primary School in Strandfontein, Vulamasango Child and Youth Facility and Sinethemba High School in Philippi, Alicedale Primary School and Cypress Primary School in Athlone, and Highlands Primary School in Woodlands.

Ways to prevent undue dog bites E
very three days, a child is treated for serious dog bites. In 2019, 101 children were treated for dog bites and these children were between the ages of five and 12 years. So says ChildSafe, an injury prevention unit based at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital. The non-profit organisation (NPO) is encouraging all parents and dog owners to be aware of the risks involved with dog bites. “Dog bites often happen during everyday activities among children and seniors,” says Yolande Baker, executive director, ChildSafe. ChildSafe advises that people be cautious around strange dogs and treat personal dogs with respect. Tips for parents and caregivers: . Never leave a baby or small child alone with a dog. . Be alert for potentially dangerous situations. . Teach children, including toddlers, to be careful around pets. . Children must learn not to approach strange dogs or try to pet dogs through fences. . Teach children to ask permission from the dog’s owner before petting the dog. There are also steps dog owners can take. Some of these are carefully selecting your pet – puppies should not be obtained on impulse – and making sure your pet is socialised as a young puppy so it feels at ease around people and other animals. Also train your dog. Basic commands help dogs understand what is expected of them and help build a bond of trust between pets and people.
Other tips for dog owners include: . Don’t put your dog in a position where it feels threatened or teased. . Be calm. Always talk in a quiet voice or whisper, no shouting. . Walk and exercise your dog regularly to keep it healthy and provide mental stimulation. . Avoid highly excitable games like wrestling or tug of war. . Use a leash in public to ensure you are able to control your dog. . Keep your dog healthy. . Have your dog vaccinated to safeguard it against rabies and other preventable infectious diseases. . Parasite control and other health care is important because how your dog feels affects how it behaves. . If you have a fenced yard, make sure your gates are secure. . Neuter your pet. Approximately 92% of fatal dog attacks involved male dogs, 94% of which were not neutered. If you are bitten, here is a checklist of things you should do: . If the dog’s owner is present, request proof of rabies vaccination, and get the owner’s name and contact information. . Clean the bite wound with soap and water as soon as possible. . Consult your doctor immediately or go to the emergency room if it is after office hours. . Contact the dog’s veterinarian to check vaccination records. V For more information on prevention of dog bites, call ChildSafe on 021 685 5208 or visit www.childsafe.org.za.

Mother relates how she survived the pandemic A
mother has sent a heartfelt appreciation to front line workers in the Western Cape after beating Covid-19. When Natheera Hermans tested positive for the Coronavirus she feared for the well-being of her children, mother and elderly grandfather, whom she shares a two-bedroom home with. The mother of two says nothing could have prepared her for receiving the news of a positive test result. “I told myself, no . . . it can’t be the Coronavirus. I kept on having positive thoughts. I told myself they just wanted to rule it out, that is why they tested me. I wasn’t prepared to tell my kids, and I wasn’t prepared myself. I have two children and elderly parents with chronic medical conditions at home and I was so afraid that I would infect them and jeopardise their health.” Natheera felt ill on Sunday 23 August, and used over-the counter medication. But two days later she struggled to breathe and knew she had to visit her doctor, as she was also was diagnosed with asthma.

“I want to say thank you to every single person from the site managers to nurses on duty, security and cleaners. You guys are amazing, and I thank God for sending me here because I was able to rest stress-free and was well taken care of. No words can describe the gratitude I have for your kindness and generosity.” When she struggled to switch off from work while recovering, words of encouragement from front line workers eased her mind. The mother was discharged from the facility on Friday 4 September and couldn’t hold back her tears as she saw her children for the first time in 10 days. “When I saw my kids again, I remembered this was the first time we were away from each other. I was very emotional. I was actually overwhelmed. Tears rolled down my face. They shouted: ‘Mommy, mommy.’ I could not wait to get out of the taxi. I dropped my bags and they ran to me.” It was her family and positive thinking that kept her motivated during her recovery. “I have had so many opportunities to stay positive. I had reasons to give up, but I never did. Life will throw curveballs, but you can make the best of it. I thought I was not going to make it; my immune system was compromised from day one because I had been sick. I had underlying conditions. But I want to say this, remain positive. Think about all the things that motivate you, like wanting to see your family.” With social distancing in place, she was able to see her fiancé and one of her daughters through a window visit. “My fiancé visited from outside the window; they (staff) guided the visit. It was very nice.” She encourages the public to remain vigilant as the world continues the battle against the virus. “Take the virus seriously. Prepare yourself should it happen to you. Take good care of yourself and your body. Eat healthy. Practise general hygiene.”
Park Island closed to dogs No dogs will be allowed in the Park Island section of the Zandvlei Nature Reserve until Friday 1 January next year after a dog hunted and killed a juvenile Cape grysbok. The incident happened on Monday 9 November. The dog was allegedly not kept on a leash – a contravention of the reserve rules that pets be on a leash at all times. The rule is also prominently displayed at the entrance to Park Island. “Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident of visitors disregarding the rules of the reserve and Park Island. As such, we decided to close this section to dogs to allow the fauna on the island to recover and to prevent further damage to the sensitive faunal populations,” says Mayco member for spatial planning and environment, Marian Nieuwoudt. Park Island is home to the cape clawless otter, water mongoose, Cape grysbok, the angulate tortoise, snakes, the western leopard toad and more. The incident is being investigated and the situation will be closely monitored. “Our nature reserves are there for the enjoyment and use by the public, but I want to remind all that upon entering, visitors agree to abide by the rules. It is sad that some dog owners cannot control their pets and that we had to take this drastic step. The ban applies to Park Island only, however, we want to urge visitors to Wildwood Island to please keep their dogs on a leash,” says Nieuwoudt. Non-compliance is an offence under the National Environmental Management Protected Areas act.

SILVERMINE WETLANDS
Insect inn offers room for learning RACINE EDWARDES racine.edwardes@media24.com
T
he Riverine Rovers believe that when communities work together, wonderful things can happen. This idea was emphasised during activities on Saturday 31 October when volunteers from Clovelly and Fish Hoek met at the Silvermine Wetlands to install an insect inn and to take part in a community clean-up of the lower wetlands. Martin Scholtz, a member of the Riverine Rovers management team, says the intention behind the insect inn installation is to make the wetlands a place of learning. “It’s something that was constructed by Clovelly resident Chris Kruyshaar and it provides a habitat for a diversity of insects. So you probably won’t see anything now but in the next six months to a year, it’ll be a place where insects in the wetlands area can find a home. There’s wood where wood-boring insects can create a space. Wasps like to
CRIME WRAP V Vrygrond: On Friday 6 November at 07:30, Muizenberg police’s crime prevention unit (CPU) responded to information regarding the possible sale and storage of drugs. The information led them to a residence in Trevor Siljeur Road where, after a thorough search of the house, the members found 172 half Mandrax and four whole Mandrax tablets in the ceiling. A man (41), a resident of the premises, was arrested on the scene and charged with dealing in narcotics. V Vrygrond: On Monday 9 November at 02:20, the Muizenberg CPU again responded to information regarding the possible sale and storage of drugs. The information led them to a residence in Vuyo Road where, after a thorough search of the house, police found 100 packets of tik in one of the bedrooms. A man (20), a resident of the premises, was arrested and charged with dealing in narcotics. V Vrygrond: On Tuesday 17 November, police attached to public order policing received a complaint of a possibly stolen motor vehicle. At 09:30, the white VW Polo was spotted in Plum Street, after which the police stopped the vehicle and ascertained that it had been stolen earlier in the morning, at about 01:00, in Neville Reilly Street. The driver and passenger of the vehicle, aged 39 and 32 respectively – both male residents of Vrygrond – were arrested on charges of possession of stolen property and the theft of a motor vehicle.
Residents of Fish Hoek and Clovelly at the installation and clean-up event held at Silvermine Wetlands on 31 October. be in brickwork so there’s brick for them,” he explains. The clean-up included removing alien vegetation, clearing reeds, tidying paths and picking up litter.
The Rovers hope their continued investment in the maintenance of the wetlands will bring in visitors and promote a healthy wetland eco-system. “What we’re trying to do – with the mosaics and the insect inn –
is to create a creative space for visitors, and to make it an educational space. “There’s also some signage up about the animals and plant life that can be seen at the wetlands, so the community is able to learn about the environment we’re so fortunate to have. And we’re investing in maintaining paths in conjunction with the City of Cape Town,” Scholtz explains, highlighting the importance of collaboration. The newly-installed insect inn is a project that was completed and mounted in memory of Lewis Walter, Steve Perret and Annetjie Allen, and dedicated to all the insects of the world because: “Without their amazing powers, there would be no trees and flowers,” as the Rovers say. Visitors to the wetlands are encouraged to stop and see if any insect visitors have arrived at the inn. The next Riverine Rovers clean-up is scheduled for March next year.

Black Friday shopping to help home animals While Black Friday is usually a day to treat yourself to all the expensive items you’ve always wanted – at a discounted price, of course – Tears Animal Rescue has flipped the script. This year, your shopping will benefit their furry felines and cuddly canines. Profit made from pet food and supplies – including health and medication, merchandise, and books – purchased directly from Tears goes back into rescuing homeless animals, medical care and rehabilitation for rehoming. Kate Phillips, online shop coordinator, says: “Supporting the Tears online shop means Capetonians can buy their favourite pet food or supplies with the benefit of knowing that all profits generated go back into fuelling our work and enables us to reach and help more vulnerable animals.” Last year, Tears told People’s Post that its monthly running costs are currently standing at more than R1 million, due to the fact
‘Fabulous’ market to hit Simon’s Town The Simon’s Town Fabulous Fashion and Thrift Market will take place on Saturday 28 November from 10:00 to 15:00 in the Town Hall in Simon’s Town. Residents can look forward to a coffee corner by Scoot Café, including ice cream, cakes and delicious light meals prepared by Sav Café. Entry to the market is free. Proceeds will go to Living From The Word.
Rescue animals will benefit from Tears Animal Rescue’s Black Friday proceeds. that it serves communities who can’t afford the care their animals need. Each purchase contributes towards the shelter, rehabilitation and care of up to 250 companion animals with proceeds being re-
channelled into numerous Tears outreach schemes. These include the sterilisation and vaccination of companion animals in vulnerable communities, children’s compassion education programmes, and the rescue of animals in distress across Cape Town’s South Peninsula. This year, the shop will be participating in Black Friday sales from Friday 27 November to Monday 30 November with discounts offered on select products. “This Black Friday you can help give homeless and vulnerable animals a second chance at a happier life all while you save money,” concludes Phillips. As with all its fundraisers, all money raised will be used to assist the shelter with its various programmes. “The more funds you raise, the more animals you will help,” the Tears statement reads.

Water disruptions in Glencairn Today, on Tuesday 24 November, the City’s water and sanitation department will be completing various connections on the water reticulation system situated in Forrest Way, Glencairn. The shutdown will take place on the main incoming water supply to Glencairn and Glencairn Heights. This work is required to link the existing infrastructure to the newly installed water mains in this vicinity.
It will result in the disruption of the water supply from 09:00 until 17:00. Businesses and residents are advised to store water in clean, sealed containers for use during this time. Residents should also ensure that their taps are closed during this period to avoid water loss or damage when the water supply is restored. A water tanker will be parked in Clan Stewart Road, Glencairn Heights, to assist where required.

DANKIE MAMA TANIA & JEFF 'n STORIE WAT JOU LEWE GOU SAL VERANDER. Ek is Chantel van Rondebosch. Ek het moed verloor nadat ek alle kruiekenners probeer het in Weskaap want niemand kon my help nie. My geliefde het my gelos, ek het 2 hofsake gehad en 33 jaar gewerk en geen geld gehet. Gelukkig lees ek van Tania, wie toe vir my gelukkige LOTTO nommers gee (7, 9, 12, 14, 19, 25). In November verlede jaar het die geluk my getref met die Lotto. My finansiële probleme was opgelos, my hofsake was gekanselleer en ek het weer liefde gevind. Hulle het ook gehelp met derde party-eise en pensioenfonds-uitbetalings.

Sport brings kids happiness

“A
nyone who says money can’t buy happiness, has clearly never bought a ball.” And living true to this is the Unchain the Plain’s latest venture with the recent launch of their own branded sporting equipment. On Saturday 21 November, the organisation launched the first batch of netball, rugby, soccer balls along with its adopt-a-ball campaign, which calls on locals to buy balls and hand them back to the organisation to distribute to vulnerable children. All 240 balls were adobted and donated at the event with the next batch ariving soon. Having started the organisation last year, they have already handed over sporting equipment to several primary schools in Mitchell’s Plain and other smaller towns such as Worcester. Some of the sporting legends who attended the event are former rugby legends Muneeb Levy and Dale Santon, who is currently the president of the SA rugby legends; former Bafana Bafana player David Nyati; former PSL players Dominic Isaacs; Shamiel Permall, Quentin Booysen and pro netball referee Shanaaz Abrahams Macauley. Santon, who grew up in Mitchell’s Plain, says: “We must take our streets back. When we were children we had other challenges. We fought a regime. There is a chemical war against our children. Our gangsters are selling drugs to our children. So many parents have children who are slaves to drugs. We need to take back our streets and this initiative is part of it.” Nyati says: “To see what is happening

here, warms my heart because I think we are in a country that really needs each and every one of us to give of our best to enable this country to rise.” He added that sport is key to keeping children off the streets. “We need to take ownership and start moulding the (people that) our young generation will become,” he says. “I am happy to see this leadership that will get kids to waste their energy in a good way. Children want to play.” This is key to Unchain the Plain’s philosophy. Mark Skriker, organisation chair, says: “I want to remind all of us that we are duty-bound and that we have a social responsibility to arrest the decline in moral values in our communities,” he says. “What we don’t always realise is it takes a village to raise a child, to nurture a child, to educate a child.” One thing many agreed on was that Mitchell’s Plain, like many other vulnerable communities is rich in sporting talent. Lt Col Cleo Arnoldus, of the Mitchell’s Plain police station, says the initiative is definitely assisting in keeping children active and off the streets, which will in turn see a reduction of influence from gangs and crime. “Every little bit helps. Sports creates resilience and that is what we need,” she says. The branded balls are imported as the local manufacturing costs were too high. “We wanted to find a manufacturer that would make balls to survive the conditions we have. We do not have lush fields to play on,” says Skriker. They will soon add cricket kits and badminton cocks and rackets to their branded
