RAISING AWARENESS: STREET DWELLERS TREATED

Homeless Day celebrated KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

T

able View and Milnerton homeless were spoiled on World Homeless Day, an annual event held to raise awareness around those living on the streets. TLC Outreach Projects, a non-profit and welfare organisation, invited all those living on the streets to enjoy a warm meal and other treats. Colleen Pietersen from TLC Outreach Projects said the day was celebrated to bring hope in these trying times and encouraging

the homeless with a powerful word of God. “We celebrated over a lunch, gift bags and TLC cupcakes donated kindly by Diane Rodgers, a volunteer at TLC Outreach Projects, and her mom. “Thank you Lynn and Lynette from Sheltersuit Bags for the gifts. Reaching the homeless on Parklands main, beach front and locals, we introduced the Life Skills programme encouraging them to come off the street and start a new life,” Pietersen said. She said they meet the homeless daily to take their temperatures. “They all sign and complete the details. Hand sanitiser is used

and clean masks given on request. Giving them a cooked meal daily has sustained the homeless during Covid-19. We are hoping that a few will return to the 12 month life skills we offer throughout the year. This includes literacy, computer classes, learner’s, driver’s, job readiness applications, matrix outpatient, mental health issues, social responsibilities, core values and family reintegration,” Pietersen explained. One of the homeless who attended the celebrations, Nigel le Roux (52), said he has been living on the streets for 34 years. “You get to meet different people from all

walks of life. Colleen really does a lot for us roaming the streets of Milnerton and Table View. We are so used to being treated differently, but we all also know why we ended up on the streets. Life is not always easy, but we try to push forward,” Le Roux said. Western Cape Minister for social development, Sharna Fernandez, has also appealed to the public on Saturday 10 October, to join the celebration and help those living on the streets. “The homeless are human beings, like every other person who lives on the planet.

City eases congestion O

ver the past two years, the City’s transport directorate has implemented projects in Cape Town’s central area that are aimed at improving the safety of residents and motorists. The central district includes areas such as Atlantis, Blaauwberg, Milnerton and Killarney. Felicity Purchase, the City’s Mayco member for transport, says they are focusing on the projects that were implemented in each of the City’s transport districts across Cape Town this Transport Month. “That way, our residents will get to see that we are strategic in how we plan and implement transport projects that are aimed at alleviating traffic congestion and promotes the safety of our residents and motorists while they are moving around the city,” Purchase says. Two major projects that were implemented in the central area to assist with alleviating congestion include the Bosmansdam Road and the Malibongwe and Sandown Road upgrade projects. Purchase says the Bosmansdam Road project has been completed and both vehicular and pedestrian traffic are able to traverse this road more easily. “The bottlenecks that existed for years, where vehicles merged into a single lane, have been eliminated with the completion of the dual lanes in both directions. This reduces delays for those who are travelling

Milnerton detectives have launched a manhunt for six suspects who shot and killed five people in Joe Slovo, Milnerton, on Thursday 8 October. According to reports from the two scenes, the six suspects arrived at a house in Sekowa Street in Joe Slovo after 22:00. Police spokesperson Brig Novela Potelwa said a woman, whose age is yet to be determined, was killed. “Another woman who was with the deceased was hit in the head and sustained injuries. “A few minutes later, the six suspects arrived at another house in Dada Street where they shot and killed three men and a woman. The ages of the victims are between 28 and 36,” Potelwa said. According to police, detectives are hard at work in an effort to apprehend the suspects, as well as determine the motive for the murders. Police are appealing to anyone with information on the murders that could assist in the investigation, to contact WO Kussel on 074 964 3197 or 08600 10111.

during peak-hour in particular,” she explains. The pedestrians now also have a surfaced non-motorised transport route of between 2 m and 3 m wide for walking. This walkway links with Koeberg Road and Montague Drive. “I want to thank members of the public for their patience during the construction period. I understand it was frustrating, but well worth the wait,” she says. The Malibongwe Drive and Sandown Road construction has progressed well. Puchase says it is envisaged that the last outstanding section of Sandown Road between Sunningdale Drive and Braselton Road will be open to traffic by the end of October. Minor work will be completed by mid-November 2020. “The new dualled roadway between Wood Drive and Potsdam Road have improved traffic patterns and congestion along this section of the network. Work on the Loop Ramp, where there is a lane closure, is still causing delays and queues during the peak period. However, the construction of the Loop Ramp should be completed early in 2021, whereafter the positive impact of the improvement to the road network will be visible,” she says. In addition, the construction of the first phase of the Public Transport Interchange at the corner of Potsdam and Dumani Roads in Dunoon commenced in 2019. The project was scheduled to take about 24 months to

complete, but it suffered many challenges due to the national lockdown when no construction work was allowed. The project is now progressing well, despite these initial delays. The work on the project entails: . a covered loading area; . six lanes for minibus-taxis; . two-storey retail block for potential traders; . the construction of a ramp leading up to the traders’ block; . a room for traders downstairs; . an administrative block, with public ablution facilities; . putting up clear signage; . the construction of a security tower. So far, the following has been completed: . the ramp leading up to the traders’ block; . two-storey retail block for traders. Purchase says one of their priorities is to improve public transport across the city due to a large number of residents relying on minibus-taxis to commute. “Thus, taxi ranks, like Dunoon, play a vital role as nodes within the transport network and are a hive of activity with operators, commuters and informal traders. We want to make these facilities as safe and comfortable as possible to give commuters a pleasant experience, while they either wait in the queue or engage with the traders,” Purchase says.

“The vast majority of people who find themselves living on the streets do not do so out of choice. There are many reasons as to why one might be homeless such as becoming unemployed, serious medical conditions, dealing with an ongoing substance use disorder (SUD), or the inability to keep up to date with rental agreements. Generally speaking, those who find themselves homeless are individuals who have had bad things happen in their lives or made bad choices. Anyone can find themselves in such a situation,” Fernandez said. Fernandez said in a statement that in addition to feeding and housing homeless people, everyone need to let the homeless know that they are valued. “In this regard, we all need to commit to preserving their dignity and treating homeless individuals with respect at all times. Regarding those people who reside on the streets, many individuals find themselves briefly living on the streets while others may have found themselves destitute for many years. This population commonly re-

fers to those individuals who have no access to a roof or shelter, live and sleep on the streets for several reasons, and have done so for any given period,” Fernandez said. The provincial department of social development currently funds 26 shelters that assist homeless citizens across the province. Throughout the current Covid-19 pandemic, the department has continued to communicate with the various facilities around proper hygiene, physical distancing and infectious disease protocols. In instances where homeless individuals require specialized healthcare, individuals will be referred to health facilities if and when necessary, the department said. “We all share a concern for the ongoing pandemic plaguing our society. However, all hope is not lost when we all work together. As a department, we are cognizant of the need to improve this critical situation and all efforts will continue to be directed at restoring the hope and dignity of all the people who we serve,” Fernandez said.

Fire leaves Dunoon family homeless KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

A

Dunoon family was left homeless on Friday 9 October after a fire swept through their shack. The blaze destroyed all their belongings and they have since appealed to the community for assistance. David Enticott, who is assisting the family, says the family needs clothes, school uniforms, shoes and other neccesities. “Jonas, who’s shack burnt down, works for my dad in Montague Gardens. I offered to take him to his house when his wife called on Friday to say the place was on fire. Jonas himself has a family of seven,” Enticott says.

He explains that he put a plea on Facebook to ask for donations to try help the families in Dunoon. “Some of the bricked hou­ses burnt down as well as shacks. I’m going to ask the ward councillor how its best to divide up the donations. They are waiting for disaster management to bring them roofing. I urge you to find it in your hearts to please assist them with donations of any kind. I will gladly collect and deliver to him in Dunoon. He doesn’t know which way to turn or how to go about fixing his house,” he says. Enticott urges the community to call him on 072 611 2327 for donations.

Yacht crew saves kayakers KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels The swift reaction of two couples on a local yacht has contributed to saving the lives of a man and a woman who capsized on their sea-kayak on Sunday 11 October. It is believed that the yacht crew had rescued a 32-year-old man and a 29-yearold woman from the water after hearing their cries for help. Marc de Vos, National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) Table Bay station commander, says NSRI duty controllers intercepted urgent radio communications from the local yacht, Savannah. “Yacht Savannah requested urgent medical assistance for a 32-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman. The four crew (the two couples) on yacht Savannah found the couple in the water near Robben Island. On investigating they had found the two casualties in the water hanging onto their waterlogged sea kayak,” De Vos says. He adds that the two kayakers may have been in the nine to 10 °C water for at least an hour. “The casualties had reportedly launched at Three Anchor Bay at around 10:00 and capsized in the vicinity of Robben Island. It is believed that they may

have capsized around 15:00 after their sea kayak became waterlogged. While the two couples on the Savannah had finished having lunch near Robben Island, they were departing to head back to Port when they heard cries for help, at first thinking it was seagulls making the noise. But the cries for help continued and on investigating, they located the two kayakers in the water hanging onto their sea kayak,” De Vos says. While the yacht crew initiated emergency rewarming measures for hypothermia, the skipper raised the alarm and began heading the yacht towards the Port of Table Bay. De Vos says the kayakers were exhausted and hypothermic. “Our sea rescue craft, Spirit of Day, was launched. ER24 ambulance services were activated to stand-by at our sea rescue station at the V&A Waterfront. WC Government Health EMS Metro Control and the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre were alerted. Our sea rescue craft rendezvoused with the yacht off-shore of the Port of Table Bay. NSRI medics were transferred onto the yacht and they assisted the yacht crew to medically stabilise the casualties,” De Vos explains. The two kayakers were brought to the NSRI Table Bay sea rescue station and they were transported to hospital by ER24 ambulance for further medical care. De Vos says both are in a stable condition.

NSRI sea rescue craft Spirit of Day was launched to rescue two kayakers on Sunday 11 October.

Homeless man helps catch burglar A 28-year-old suspect has been arrested in Blouberg on Thursday 8 October after being caught breaking into a business complex. According to Table View police spokesperson, Capt Adriana Chandler, a homeless man was woken up when he heard glass breaking at a business complex opposite Blouberg Beach. “The homeless man noticed that an unknown man had broken into the property and ran to inform anyone close by. Fortunately, an armed response officer was stationary near the premises and he was aler­ted of the burglary in progress. The officer immediately responded and apprehended the suspect before he could escape. Table View police were called and the suspect was handed over to them,” Chandler said. The 28-year-old suspect has been charged with housebreaking and theft. Acting Table View station commander, Lt Col Hennie Nel, has welcomed the arrest and expressed his appreciation to the homeless man for his part in the arrest, as well as to the armed response officer who apprehended the suspect before he could flee the scene. Anyone with information on criminal activity in their neighbourhood is asked to call crime stop anonymously at 08600 10111.

Angels raise money in aid of breast cancer awareness RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

O

ctober is the month in which breast cancer awareness is raised and emphasized by those who have suffered, but also lost a loved one as a result of the illness. To show their support and to help raise awareness and money, a group of ladies have endeavoured to run a marathon, all be it a virtual one. The marathon is in support of the Zonny’s Love Box Project, a project started by Kraaifontein resident, the late Zondelia Lombard-Swartz. Lombard-Swartz passed away on Sunday 8 September 2019 as a result of breast cancer (“School loses a ‘family member’,” 11/09/’19). She was first diagnosed in 2013 and again in 2017. The 47-year-old Lombard-Swartz, or Zonny as she was also known, was the principal of Kuils River Primary School at the time of her death – a position she held since January 2017. Elwyn Hansby-Consul, Love Box champion and ambassador, says during the period Zonny suffered from cancer, she saw the need to source donations in the form of toiletries, beautifully packaged in pink boxes and bags for those who had to walk a similar path. These were distributed to breast cancer patients at the hospital, she says. The boxes contain a face cloth, toothbrush and toothpaste, lip balm, roll-on, skin lotion and a pair of socks, to mention a few. “We, friends and family, have vowed to carry on with this project in her memory. So this year, we made plans to go ahead with the love box donations, and to have a driveby drop off at her parent’s home in BellvilleSouth on Saturday 24 October. “We have identified Tygerberg and Paarl Hospital as the beneficiaries of the boxes,”

A group of ladies will be running a virtual marathon this year in aid of breast cancer awareness month. The group also wishes to raise money through this marathon for Tygerberg Hospital’s breast cancer clinic. At the back is Elwyn Hansby-Consul, Vera-Jane Adams and Zohra Parkar. Sitting in the middle is Gail Levitt and Natasha Whiteboyd and far right is René Brown-Rossouw. says Hansby-Consul. The initiative is supported by family and friends, as well as a few private individuals. “We are blown away by the response to this initiative.” Hansby-Consul also says she and a few of her friends will be undertaking a marathon to raise awareness and funds. “On Sunday 18 October we will be participating in either the Sanlam Cape Town Virtual Marathon’s 21, 10, or five kilometre race and we are using this virtual race to raise the funds for the project.” Those wishing to donate can visit www.allmysports-sa.com/product-catego-

ry/donations/zonnys-lovebox/. On the site you will find a bio of all the ambassadors, as well as the Dirt Addict Girls who also supports the initiative, Hansby-Consul says. The team hopes to raise R50 000. A portion of the money raised will be donated to Tygerberg Hospital’s breast cancer clinic. The money will be used to do some improvements at the clinic, Hansby-Consul says.

BackaBuddy campaign for Dunoon dad KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

“W

hen I lost my job, I was like, what am I going to do? How am I going to survive? All I know is how to make people laugh and how to talk to people. I had no choice but to work and put food on the table.” These are the words of a warehouse packer and father of three, Lusindiso Malgas (27), from Dunoon who lost his job due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Without an education and lack of resources, Malgas found a way to spread joy, as well as support his family. He creates funny placards to entertain passersby in Blouberg, relying on his sense of humour to get him through tough times. With his warm personality on full display, Malgas caught the attention of a good Samaritan and business consultant, Brendan Cottle (35), who launched a crowd-funding campaign on BackaBuddy to help him get back on his feet. Malgas hails from Sterkstroom in the Eastern Cape. The funds raised will help Malgas realize his dream of becoming a homeowner and be reunited with his children who are currently living with his parents. Cottle says seeing Malgas’ smile brightened up his morning commute. “I know the same can be said for many others. I am a very optimistic and positive person and when I saw Lu’s smile and happiness to do what he was doing, made me think about him and the situation of others, especially during the country lockdown. I hope with this campaign, Lusindiso’s story can reach more people and that his positivity can circle the globe,” says Cottle. One of the motorists, Jeanette Strydom, says she always looks forward to seeing him every morning. “His placards are hilarious and really

brightens up my day. I think during these tough times we need some cheering and smiling and that’s exactly what he is doing. I’m urging all to please support him,” Strydom says. The BackaBuddy campaign went live on 22 July and as of Monday 12 October, raised over R59 234 towards his fundraising goal of R250 000 with contributions from both locally and internationally. “I would like to thank the Capetonians, as well as people across the country and overseas who have helped me and understood my situation. Those are the good people. I don’t know how I survived. But I did. God is great,” Malgas says. Donations to the crowd-funding campaign will be transferred directly to relevant suppliers, at his request, to ensure that funds are used for their intended purpose. With additional funds, Cottle hopes to assist Malgas by launching a T-shirt business to help him support his family.

Man weer in hof oor bedrog Andrew Futcher met ’n vorige hofverskyning. FOTO: NIELEN DE KLERK

NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

G

etuies kry nou uiteindelik kans om hul kant van die saak te stel teen ’n veroordeelde bedrieër. Die beskuldigde, Andrew Paul Futcher, word daarvan aangekla dat hy meer as R26 miljoen se bedrog gepleeg het in ’n nuwe saak. Futcher het verlede Donderdag in die Bellville-handelshof verskyn, waarna sy saak tot 21 Februarie 2021 uitgestel is. Klaers van reg oor die Kaap het vroeër vanjaar vir die eerste keer teen Futcher begin getuig – byna nege jaar nadat hy in hegtenis geneem is. Die huidige hofsaak kom nadat Futcher reeds in 2004 tronkstraf opgelê is vir ’n piramideskema waarin beleggers miljoene verloor het.

Hy het ’n paar jaar tronkstraf uitgedien en is in 2007 op parool vrygelaat, waarna hy glo weer beleggers begin bedrieg het. Volgens die klagstaat het Futcher in sy hangende saak ’n maandelikse opbrengs van 10% deur sy onderneming Ablaze Trading aan beleggers belowe. Hy het ook glo beloof om die kapitaal wat belê is, ná ’n tydperk terug te betaal. Hy staan nou tereg op 96 aanklagte, waarvan 90 vir bedrog is. Die ander sluit geldwassery, sowel as vervalsing en uitgifte, in. Party van die meer as 30 klaers het glo miljoene rande in dié skema verloor. Een klaer het na bewering R3,8 miljoen verloor en minstens agt ander klaers meer as ’n miljoen rand. Futcher word deur adv. Helmut Scholzel verteenwoordig en adv. Esmeralda Johnson tree vir die staat op. Die saak dien voor Sabrina Sonnenberg.

SLICE OF LIFE

Loop maar lig as baba naam moet kry! ’n Mens wonder soms of ouers hoegenaamd dink aan die implikasies van die name wat hulle hul kinders gee. Vat byvoorbeeld Jangotliebantonius, Beblasirena vir ’n meisie, Egipte Daoud Dean vir ’n seun, of Lubomir vir ’n seun óf ’n dogter. Die arme kinders gaan maar swaar dra aan daardie name, al het Willem Wikkelspies gesê “What’s in a name?” Jamie Oliver, bekende Britse kok, resepteboekskrywer en Londense restauranteienaar, het sy twee dogters onderskeidelik Poppy Honey Rosie en Petal Bloss Rainbow genoem. Want hy kán. Iets wat my nog altyd laat wonder het, is hoekom sou iemand hul seun Jan-Jan wou noem? Watter deel van J A N verstaan hulle nie sodat hulle dit moet herhaal in een naam? Wat dan van Piet-Piet of Bernard-Bernard? Dit sou tog skoon simpel wees, of hoe? In party kulture hier te lande word mense genoem na iets wat eie is aan hulle, soos Ogies “ ‘My van,’ seg vir iemand wat skeel is of Hoppie hy, ‘my van is vir iemand wat mank loop. ’n Mens Chiwawa. sou kon sê dis En ek spel onvleiend en jy het simpatie met hulle, hom só. Nie maar so weet almal Chihuahua soos onmiddellik van gepraat word. die woordeboek wie Doopname en byname verskil sê nie.’ ” (gelukkig) soms hemelsbreed. So is daar die byname Kortgat Koekemoer en Langeraat Louw, en op die dorp weet almal wie húlle is! En niemand weet eens wat hul regte name is nie. Só ook Vleis Visagie en Swepie Swanepoel. Raai-raai waar kom dáái name vandaan? In die laat jare negentig het ’n egpaar iewers in Afrika gemeen hulle is baie deftig en het toe hul pasgebore baba Oxford University Press genoem. I kid you not. Dit het later aanleiding gegee tot ’n hofsaak waarin beveel is dat die ouers ’n ander naam moes kies. Hopelik het hulle die baba toe nie Advanced Learner’s Dictionary genoem nie. Vanmelewe trek ons na ons nuwe huis op die platteland en besluit dis dalk ’n goeie idee om twee waghonde aan te skaf. Mure met hakiesdraad en elke meter ’n kamera was net nie ons styl nie. So sit ons af na die naaste SPCA-tak in die stad. Daar word ons ontvang deur Comfort wat ons na die hokke neem om twee honde uit te kies vir aanneming. Hy roep sy kollega, Innocent, nader om te help, want die twee Duitse herdershonde se energie ken geen perke nie. Hulle sleep ons aan hul halsbande na die grasperk, waar ons die een kwylsoen ná die ander kry. Twee pragtige diere. Opgewonde oor die vooruitsig van ’n nuwe huis en oorvloedige liefde. Nadat ons besluit het dís die twee wat by ons gesin gaan aansluit, is ons na die kantoor om die papierwerk te doen. Ons word voorgestel aan ene Patrick, wat na ons huis toe sal kom vir ’n inspeksie om seker te maak die erf is geskik vir die viervoetiges se behoeftes. Op die afgesproke dag kom Patrick toe in sy bakkie daar aangesuiker om ons werf te bekyk. En voor ons hom inlaat, vra ons sy van. “My van,” seg hy, “my van is Chiwawa. En ek spel hom só. Nie Chihuahua soos die woordeboek sê nie.” Toe mnr. Chiwawa sy draaie geloop en sy kyke gekyk het en in sy bakkie wegry, bars ons uit van die lag. Tot daai oomblik moes ons dit maar inhou, want sê nou hy het in sy eer gekrenk gevoel omdat ons sy van baie toepaslik, maar ook komies gevind het en ons afgekeur? En tóg – sê nou óns van was Windvogel, Volmoer of Fruttelpapi, of selfs Kwak, en mnr. Chiwawa het dít komies gevind, dan was dit ook maar oukei. It takes all types to make the world go around. – Werner van Tonder

Bring back wildflowers It is with great interest that I read the article on long grass (“Long grass a pain”, TygerBurger 14 October). Personally, I am of the exact opposite opinion expressed by the advocates of the grass cutting regime. From a very young age, I have been passionate about gardening and a keen collector of plants. In all the years that I gardened, neatness was a buzzword, lawns were fed, cut and trimmed to within an inch of their lives and the flowerbeds were planned with meticulous attention to height, foliage texture and how they fitted into the colour wheel. My garden was my pride and joy and won the Durbanville garden competition several times. Although I still love the exotic plants and visit those beautiful English gardens whenever I have the opportunity to visit my children in the UK, my ideas for gardening in Cape Town have experienced no less than an explosive revolution. Three years of drought and dry boreholes had a lot to do with it! It was only with considerable resistance on my part and many heated arguments that my son, Mark, persuaded me to consider a different approach. As I started my research, I discovered that all over the world, designers are changing their ideas and currently they focus more and more on what environmentalists have been advocating for years. That is, “go wild and indigenous”. From the High Line in New York and the green belts of Vancouver, to the road verges in the UK, rewilding open areas is becoming the accepted norm. The more I read, the more I became inspired. Where better to try this idea than in my own garden! Every year we travel eagerly to see the spring flowers

along the West coast, all the way to Springbok. With some small effort on our part we could have those same views on our pavements and in our parks. Tourists from all over the world come to see our wild flowers, so why are we rooting them out and destroying them in our urban parks and green belts? How lucky are we to live in the Cape Floristic Region, a Unesco World Heritage site and one of the seven floral kingdoms of the world? Although it is the smallest site, it is the richest in species and the most diverse. There are over 9 000 species of plants around us, of which about 69% are endemic to the Cape and occur nowhere else in the world. Unfortunately 18% of the plants listed on the red data base of endangered species in South Africa occur only in Cape Town. This is an alarming fact that needs to be addressed. Should we leave it only to the authorities, or can each one of us do something about it in our own small way? Many endangered plant species have been saved from extinction by keen gardeners who were collectors of plants and have jealously cherished and guarded them in their small urban gardens. In the light of this dire situation, should we not advocate that our green spaces in the city are dedicated to provide a sanctuary for indigenous plants, so precious to our environment? We should encourage Council to take a hard look at how parks and green spaces can be managed to achieve the preservation of biodiversity in our green spaces, as well as using these same spaces for recreational use of the citizens of the city. It will certainly not be an easy task to convince citizens. If implemented, it will not please everybody either, but

is it not the right thing to do? At the moment Council manages an expensive, outsourced cutting programme to satisfy people’s desire for neatness and managing weeds – in some cases even making use of broad leaf weed killers. They work under huge public pressure and I am sure that decisions on this are made to accommodate those people who shout the loudest. I firmly believe that one should not criticize unless you have a workable and positive alternative suggestion. I think we should bite the bullet and make the change. I advocate that during the rainy season from April to the middle of November, only generous walking paths be cut in these green spaces, to enable dog walking and exercisers. The rest should be left wild. This will enable the seeds of wild flowers, bulbs and indigenous grasses to germinate, flower and set seeds for the following season. Within a year or two of doing this, we should see our parks slowly recovering and change into areas typical of the Cape floral paradise that sustains a diverse bird and insect life. During the dry summer period the areas can be cut, but to a height of no less than 20 cm, keeping the perennial plants alive. The cuttings should be left in situ to drop their precious seeds and act as a mulch to preserve moisture. The birds will be very happy about the feast, but nature is wonderful - enough of the seedbank will survive to bloom the next year. If cut before the seeds are set, the first thing that will disappear forever, are the indigenous bulbs. Those Cape Town citizens who care, should make their voices heard. Shall we take up the challenge and bring our wildflowers back into our urban green spaces? Ronelle Shuttleworth Durbanville

Belangrikheid van sportorganisasie Oorwinnings in rugbywedstryde, krieketwedstryde en inderdaad suksesvolle mededinging in enige sportsoort word nie noodwendig óp die sportveld bewerkstellig nie. Nee, dit is reeds op die oefenveld dat die aanvoorwerk vir die oorwinning gedoen word. Dit is in die beplanningskamer waar die besetting van die wennerspodium in die vooruitsig gestel word. Dit is in die raadskamer dat die strategieë met die oog op welslae beplan word. Maar o wee! As daar gekyk word na die pandemonium waarin byvoorbeeld Suid-Afrika se krieket op nasionale vlak tans verkeer, dan is dit maar goed dat daar nie op die oomblik sprake van internasionale mededinging vir die Proteas is nie. Sportgeesdriftiges sal ver moet gaan soek om ’n beter toonbeeld van onbeholpenheid, onbevoegdheid en selfs hopeloosheid te kry. Dag ná dag moet krieketgeesdriftiges kennis neem van onmin in die geledere van die land se voorste ampsdraers. Laasgenoemdes is in talle gevalle in daardie topposte nie soseer op grond van hul administratiewe bevoegdhede nie. Die gevolg is voortdurende afdankings, afleggings, bedankings en nie-openbaarmaking van verslae en ondersoeke. Ter illustrasie: Enkele maande gelede is ene dr. Eugenia Kula-Ameyaw uit die bloute as ’n raadslid by Krieket Suid-Afrika (KSA) betrek. Deur wie en op grond van watter bevoegdhede dit geskied het, is onduidelik. Want hierdie vrou was nog nooit naby ’n krieketveld nie, sy het geen benul van krieketadministrasie nie en sy het by geleentheid al selfs erken dat sy nie veel ooghare het vir die spel nie.

Baxter opens with première T

he first live stage performance at the Baxter Theatre in Level 1 of the lockdown is the world première of The Outlaw Muckridge with a run of two weeks from Tuesday 13 until Saturday 24 October. Renowned radio broadcaster and actor, John Maytham teams up with director, Alan Committie and writer, Louis Viljoen in a story ‘‘inspired by the lockdown, but not about the lockdown’’. Viljoen says, “Instead of using the pandemic as a plot point, we decided that the emotional cost of isolation and loneliness would drive the story and from there the play was born. My promise to John was to bring him madness and horror; the humour and pathos were natural side-effects of that promise.” The story deals with a lonely, damaged man who has been taking care of his ailing mother for most of his life. In be­tween bouts of depression and flashbacks to a life filled with emotional abuse and failures, he wishes himself to be a vengeful cowboy out to right the wrongs of the world. What or who he is avenging is not clear, but during one long night of the soul, the man realises that his greatest villain might be himself. “I am delighted to be back in another solo performance in this mad Covid world,” says

Maytham, who left full-time acting in 1990 for a career in radio journalism. Director Alan Committie says he is thrilled to be working with two good friends ‘‘who also happen to be wonderfully brilliant in their respective fields. I remember seeing John being brilliant in the David Hare solo show Via Dolorosa many years ago and to now have an opportunity to work with him on this marvellously dark and thought-provoking text is both challenging and exhilarating.’’ Viljoen is known for his sharp and stinging work. This is his first new play following the success of The Hucksters which was staged in January. All performances will be limited to 50% capacity, with Covid-19 protocols in place. These include the availability of hand sanitisers, tracking and tracing recorded, wearing of masks and physical distancing. Patrons and audience members are advised to arrive at least an hour before the start of the performance to avoid delays. The performance runs at just under an hour, with no interval and has an age re­striction of 18 years. Shows start at 19:00 at the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio. V Tickets cost R100 to R120. Available online at www.webtickets.co.za or call 086 111 0005.

Western Cape is ‘cannabis hub’ ESMÉ ERASMUS

T

he rise of the cannabis industry, specifically in the Western Cape, is positioning the province as a cannabis hub, said Beverley Schäfer, deputy speaker of the Western Cape Provincial Parliament. She was the guest speaker at the opening of the CANNAFRICA CBD retail store at Willowbridge shopping centre last Wednesday evening. CANNAFRICA is the first CBD lifestyle brand on the JSE through its investment holding company, Labat Africa. “The Western Cape is the 12th largest economy on the continent and Cape Town has the 17th largest economy in Africa. When we talk about being a hub in Africa, we are basing it on this very data – where the Western Cape, and even Cape Town, really rank as significant players in Africa,” she said. “Over the past five years, the Western Cape has shown relatively strong performance in terms of average annual GDP growth, compared to other provinces and the national average. This is evidence of the economic resilience of the province,” Schäfer said.

“The role of agriculture in the Western Cape is pivotal to this industry. In 2018/2019 the Western Cape had the lowest rural unemployment rate in the country. Employment growth for agriculture saw an increase of 10.3% year-on-year. The rural unemployment rate saw a decline to 15.7% – a drop of 3.4% quarter-on-quarter,” she said. “The Western Cape exports half of South Africa’s agricultural products and 40% of South Africa’s agri-processed products (food and beverages). “More than a million bottles of South African wine are sold per day globally – coming almost exclusively from the Western Cape,” she said. Schäfer said she believes this is an incredibly conductive environment from which to develop the field of medicinal cannabis. “But we certainly also look forward to the opportunities that industrial hemp can bring. Our strong agro-processing and manufacturing capabilities will make the Western Cape a natural home for the manufacturing of hemp products once hemp gets going,” she said.

With their dad, Romeo Maasdorp, are Lameez (left) and Raisa with CBD infused drinks. They are from Belhar. “The export team at Wesgro is currently using its global network to engage with key international markets. The team is already promoting South African and Western Cape cannabis, and developing export facilitation expertise in this complex area of international trade,” she said. However, if the cannabis economy is to support economic recovery in this country, there is more work to be done. “We need to address the grey areas and we need to move forward with commercial hemp. We need to provide the legal certainty that investors need, as within any sector of the economy. We need the national industrial strategy for cannabis to move forward and will have to see what the final version of the Cannabis for Private Purposes Act looks like,” she said. Schäfer said, “If we are looking to cannabis to support economic recovery, we need to ensure that we are talking about inclusive economic recovery”. “We need to make this industry work for as many South Africans as possible. There is a big danger of big pharmaceutical and established international multinationals co-

Mental health signs and support Mental health disorders affect people from all walks of life. If you are concerned about a loved one who may be struggling with their mental health and in need of support, you are not alone. While you may feel helpless or concerned, there are many ways to support a loved one’s recovery. Professor Liezl Koen, psychiatrist and head of the clinical team at Stikland Hospital, says it is important to educate your­self about an illness and the resources available to help a loved one. “Acknowledge their distress or suffering, even if you don’t completely understand it. Work with the treatment team and not against them, rather support them as they have your loved one’s best interest at heart, even when they sometimes don’t agree with you. “Avoid being emotionally overinvolved or having unrealistic expectations, but don’t be afraid of setting appropriate limits and enforcing them for the good of the family or group,’’ says Koen.

The signs that someone needs mental health support might differ from person to person, but Koen says there are indicators to look out for. “Changes in mental functioning affect thinking, behaviour and emotions. Be alert for anything that is different from the usual: excessive worries and fears, dramatic changes in eating and sleeping, unusual behaviour, increased sadness or irritability, inability to respond to positive input, social withdrawal, under-performance, decrease in self-care or loss of hope. Don’t be afraid to ask if you are concerned.” If there is concern that someone may be suffering from a mental illness, Koen advises to see a health professional at the nearest day hospital or general prac­tice. “You will first be screened to ensure that you do not have an untreated medical illness that mimics psychiatric symptoms. From there you will then be referred to a service that best suits your needs.” Koen says not all mental symptoms need intervention from a medical doctor or psychia-

trist, and a social worker, counsellor or psychologist may be most appropriate for some. The four specialised referral psychiatric hospitals in the city are Stikland, Valkenberg, Lentegeur and Alexandra. There are also mental health nurses based at various primary healthcare facilities. Patients needing further mental health care will be referred to one of these specialised hospitals by their primary healthcare team. Lifestyle changes can improve general wellbeing. Koen says poor mental health directly impacts physical wellness. One example she says is depression which can cause chronic tiredness, sleep problems and increased sensitivity to aches and pains due to abnormal neurotransmitter function in the brain. “Neglecting the interaction between mental, physical and social well-being not only affects your ability to make healthy decisions, but it can also di­rectly lead to complications such as high blood pressure,

ming in and leaving little space for locals. We need to strike a balance. There are currently also very high barriers to entry in the medicinal cannabis area created by the high cost of obtaining a licence,” she said. According to Schäfer, outsourced or contract cultivation models would need to be explored and approved by the regulator to ensure small farmer inclusion. “If small-scale growers could be accommodated under the private use allowance there could be a workable solution. There is a wealth of knowledge from generations of growing African landraces – this should be protected and incorporated.” Schäfer said she believes the Western Cape has a role to play in driving the South African cannabis economy, “but by no means is this a Western Cape only story”. “This is a story in which many regions in South Africa, and even Southern Africa, are able to play to their strengths. Together we can be a powerhouse. “So my request here today is let’s do this right. Let’s spread the opportunity and build a SA Can cannabis powerhouse industry here,” she said.

being overweight or having a weak response to fighting infection.” Koen advises you can help your loved one by ensuring they: . Get regular exercise: “Exercise can re­lease feel-good brain chemicals. Choose a programme or form of exercise that works for you and stick to it.” Maintain a healthy diet: “Always include fruits, vegetables and fish or good fats in your diet, such as nuts, if possible.” . Get enough sleep: “Not getting enough sleep can impact your mental well-being.” . Use treatment if needed: “It’s important that you remain adherent to the treatment programme you and your healthcare provider have decided on.” . Embrace support: “Enhance your social support and don’t be afraid to reach out to family and friends for support.” Koen says it is also critical to avoid using substances to self-medicate symptoms, as it can lead to symptoms worsening or the development of new symptoms.

FAW desperate for foster ‘parents’

Jimmy, a five-year-old, has a gentle, obedient nature and a yearning to please his humans. He loves people of all ages and likes other dogs. He grew up around children and is a lovely low-maintenance dog, which doesn’t need loads of exercise or grooming – just love and comfort.

Fisantekraal Animal Welfare is urgently looking for homes, foster or permanent, for six dogs. “We do not have any kennels and most of our animals are kept in foster homes, except for six dogs, which are still at a shelter and looking for foster families,” Jenni Davies, spokesperson of FAW, says. “Of course we need money – animal shelters are always in desperate need of funds, but sometimes a much more valuable resource than money is a team of ‘reliable volunteers’,” she says. “The beauty of adopting an animal from a foster home is that our animals are ‘test driven’ for a while. “If necessary, FAW can call upon its own animal behaviourist to iron out any issues that may have come to light, like assisting with house training or basic obedience,” she says. “We don’t have kennels, so we don’t have an array of cages for you to walk through.

Nor do we have ‘petting’ or ‘walkie’ days for volunteers to attend,” she says. “What we do have, is an amazing team of foster families who have stood up when it mattered and opened their hearts and homes to a fur baby. We are always looking for more foster families, as it really is an invaluable resource for us,” she says. Foster families need to be as committed to finding a permanent home for the animals as much as FAW does. “Although it may sound strange to pay R600 for a ‘homeless’ dog, you’re actually getting a lot for your money. Aside from having a wonderful furry friend, your dog is sterilised, fully vaccinated and dewormed up to date of adoption, microchipped and checked by a veterinarian,” she says. V Anyone who wants to be a foster family, must contact FAW on WhatsApp 078 892 7892 or adoptions@faw.za.org.

Marley, a five-year-old male mixed-breed dog, is active, playful and loves hiking. He is currently in foster care, and is being trained. He gets on with most other dogs and will be fine with children over eight years due to his boisterous nature, but doesn’t like cats.

KILLARNEY: RACING FOR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GLORY

Karting showdown T

he Rotax Max South African Challenge national karting championship will come to a thrilling head at the Killarney Kart Track on Saturday 17 October. Three drivers have already been crowned, but the other four classes will all race for national championship glory, as well as the honour of representing South Africa in January’s Rotax Max World Grand finals in Portugal. Local lad Sebastian Boyd leads a supertight three-way premier class direct drive gearbox DD2 title dice to Killarney. KwaZulu-Natal driver Robert Whiting and multiple DD2 champion Bradley Liebenberg from Gauteng are right in there too. Behind them, Jamie Smith, Nicolas Spanoyannis and Niko Zafiris are within striking distance. And they have Jason Coetzee, Divan Braak and a wildcard or two in close attendance too. Pretoria man Nicholas Verheul is already the 2020 o.30 SA Rotax DD2 Masters champion and Jonathan Pieterse has secured second there. But Eugene Brittz in third has Alistair Mingay, Tinahe Ncube, Marouan

Selmi, Pascal Acquaah and Eric Marzoppi on his case. That should still deliver an interesting race as the others have a score to settle with Verheul. Open-age chain-drive Senior Max is however wide open. Cape locals Tate Bishop and SA champion Charl Visser are separated by two points. Don’t ignore Jozi kid Aqil Alibhai here – he does not drop points in the Cape after only stepping up from Junior after round 1. Jozi kid Muhammad Wally is already the 2020 South African high school u.15 Junior Max champion, following a faultless eightwin rout in the opening rounds. Each SA National Rotax Max Challenge class will race four heats at Killarney on Saturday. It’s a big weekend – not only will the 2020 champions be crowned, but each earns a ticket to represent South Africa at the Rotax Max World Finals in Portugal in January. No spectators will be allowed at Killarney, but the races will be live streamed. V Log on to www.kart.co.za for the feed all day Saturday 17 October.
