TBERGHOSPITAAL: GROEP VROUE EN BORGE KNAP BABASAAL VIR MAS OP

Vyfster-verblyf

MAGRIET THERON

@magrietron

N

uwemas vanvroeggebore en siek pas-

gebore babas moet soms vir maande

in n stoel langs n broeikas in eenheid

J3 van die Tygerberg-kinderhospitaal sit om

naby hul babas te wees. Hierdie eenheid

word die babas en mammas se tweede huis.

S s dr. HaseenaHasan, neo-natale pedia-

ter van die hospitaal. Sy s dit is van kardi-

nale belang dat die babas se mas by hulle

moet wees, sodat hulle borsmelk kan kry,

hulle n band met mekaar kan vorm en dat

die babas sogenaamde kangeroe-versor-

ging kan kry.

Party van die babas in eenheid J3 weeg

selfs so min as 600 g met geboorte.

n Groep vroue van Durbanville het nou

met die hulp van borge een van die kamers

van eenheid J3 s ingerig dat tien mas met

babas gemaklik daar kan woon.

Ons het besluit omborge te betrek omdie

saal op te knap.

Die saal is oorgeverf, nuwe beddens, ma-

trasse, beddegoed, bedkassies, n TV, Chris-

telike CDs en DVDs en heelwat toiletbeno-

digdhede is geskenk, s Sulet Fourie, wat

die projek begin het.

Een van die vroue van ons kerk se moms

group werk ook hier en sy het ons gevra vir

ekstra speelgoed en kombersies om die saal

mee mooi te maak, vertel Sulet.

Sy s die groep het toe besluit om die ge-

meenskap te betrek en borge te nader.

n Mens se hart breek vir die mammas

wathierdiekleinoudingetjiesmoet versorg.

Hierdiemas wil die beste vir hul kinders h

en ons wou ook h hulle moet gemaklik

wees, s sy.

Dit is ongelooflik hoeveel borge aan

boord gekom het. Ons kon die hele kamer

toerus en mooimaak.

Elke bed het n naambordjie bo, waar dit

vroer net n stukkie maskeerband met n

naam op was en ons het fotos laat raam en

teen die mure gehang, s sy.

Die hele proses het omtrent vier maande

geneem.

Dit is vir hierdie mas moeilik om vir so

lank hier te wees. Dit is ongelooflik om nou

n huislike atmosfeer in hierdie saal te h,

s Hasan.

VERVOLG VAN BLADSY 1

Daar is nou sagte matrasse op stewige bed-

dens dit is n vriendelike omgewing. Dit is

so goed vir die moraal van die mas, s sy.

Een van di vroue is Khuselwa Sonkosi

(28), wat tot onlangs in Johannesburg ge-

woon en gewerk het. Maar in die laaste paar

jaar het sy vyf miskrame gehad voor sy 28

weke swanger was.

Iemand het my van die Tygerberg-hospi-

taal vertel toe ek die sesde keer swanger

word, s sy.

Sy het haar werk bedank en met n bus

Kaapstad toe gekom om vir hulp te kom vra

by die hospitaal.

Sy is dadelik opgeneem en vir twee weke

gemonitor. Op 4 Oktober is haar dogtertjie,

Linathi Azania Sonkosi, op 26 weke en 5 dae

gebore. Linathi het die geboorte oorleef,

maar het skaars 700 g geweeg.

Daar is babaswat dit kan oorleef, ten spy-

te vandie beperktehulpbronnewat onshet,

s Hasan.

Sy s volgens wet moet die hulpbronne

soos ventilators wat daar wel vir die neo-na-

tale eenhede beskikbaar is, geprioritiseer

word vir babas wat n 28 weke gebore word.

Maar party van hierdie heel klein baba-

tjies het ongelooflike veggees, soos Linathi.

Ek is baie tevrede met haar en in ses weke

het haar gewig al meer as verdubbel, s sy.

Sy s een van die redes waarom n baba

soos Linathi kan oorleef, is omdat hulle in

J3 daarop aandring dat die babas net bors-

melk gevoed word. En as die mas gemaklik

is, is dit net makliker.

Khuselwa is een van die mas wat nou die

nuwe kamer saam met nege ander vroue

deel elkeenmet tenminste een vroeggebo-

re baba.

Eenheid J3 is toegerus om 25 babas te kan

akkommodeer, maar Hasan s daar is op die

oomblik 33.

Ons kapasiteit is lankal bereik. Ons wys

niemand weg nie, maar die personeel is on-

der ongelooflikedrukendaar is n tekort aan

verpleegsters met gespesialiseerde oplei-

ding, s Hasan, wat al vir 13 jaar by Tyger-

berg werk.

Sy s die implikasies is dat infeksiebeheer

moeilik raak en dat die personeel oorwerk

is.

Sodra n vroeggebore of siek pasgebore ba-

ba in di eenheid stabiel is, word hulle ver-

skuif na n hospitaal nader aan die familie.

As die baba 1,8 kgweeg en die dokter tevrede

is, kan sy of hy huis toe gaan.

Fourie s hierdie een kamer is nou klaar

en al wat sy nou nog wil doen is om opvoed-

kundige programme oor babasorg te kry

waarna die vroue kan kyk, terwyl hulle wag

dat hul babas sterker word.

Khuselwa Sonkosi met die kleine Linath,i wat

op 26 weke gebore is. Linathi het al 700 g

opgetel sedert sy op 4 Oktober haar eerste

lewenslig gesien het. Sonkosi voer haar net

borsmelk uit n koppie, omdat sy nog nie kan

suig nie.

DVDvan rakke verwyder

Die 2014-DVD van die Gospel-Skouspel

wat in Oktober uitgereik is, is weens n

tegniese fout van alle winkelrakke

verwyder. Die drukkersduiwel het by

die reproduksie van die DVD ingesluip

en daartoe gelei dat die volledige reeks

DVDs voorlopig aan die mark onttrek

word totdat die nuwe DVDs vroeg in

2015 gereed is, het die eienaars van die

Gospel-Skouspel-handelsmerk, ges.

Recycledwater to irrigate fields

MAGRIET THERON

@magrietron

T

reated water from the Athlone waste

water treatment plant will soon be

used to irrigate sports fields, schools

and parks in Parow and Goodwood.

The Parow Link pipeline project has re-

cently been completed and launched on 24

November.

This six kilometer-long pipeline extends

from Thornton to the Parow pond at the

Parow golf course.

Here, the water is already filling the dam

and with existing infrastructure, be used to

irrigate the golf course and adjacent sports

fields.

Various beneficiaries were identified and

connected along the pipeline route.

The pressure still needs to be boosted,

and for that a booster pump and reservoir

will be erected, says Gert van Niekerk,

president of the golf club.

Construction of these important two ele-

ments have already been approved and will

take place in 2015.

VanNiekerk says two years ago, the pond

at the golf course dried up completely, all

the carp died and so did the grass surround-

ing the water feature.

The dam, which was initially built to

manage flood water through Parow, has its

own pump station and treatment plant.

Now this supply of water will be enhanced

by the Parow Link effluent.

Two thirds of the citys water consump-

tion ends up in more than 20 treatment

works across the city from where the final

effluent is dischargedback into the environ-

ment. The City of Cape Towns objective is

to offset the use of potable water by supply-

ing treated effluent for irrigation purpos-

es, says Clive Justus, chairperson of sub-

council 4 about this and other Water De-

mand Management (WDM) projects that

commenced across the city in 2007 in order

to offset potable water.

The users will also be saving money as

the tariff for treated water is less than pota-

ble water, and the additional benefit is the

added fertiliser, which comes gratis, Jus-

tus said at the launch.

The dam at the Parow golf course will be transformed to a reservoir which will hold four mega

liters of treated water for irrigation in Parow and Goodwood. PHOTO: MAGRIET THERON

Another police officer stationed at the

ParowPolice Stationwas arrested on 21No-

vember for defeating the ends of justice,

and fraud.

Police spokespersonFCvanWyksaid this

was the 12th arrest of employees and former

employees at this station in the past two

weeks.

On 21 September, slightly after mid-

night, the neighbourhood watch of Parow

Park patrolled the area and found a suspect

in possession of 15 mandrax tablets.

They notified this constable who re-

sponded to the complaint. The suspect and

packet with drugs were handed to him. The

neighbourhood watch members later made

enquiries, only to discover that no case

docket was registered, the suspect was not

detained and the drugs not handed in as ex-

hibit, Van Wyk said.

The same policeman also allegedly forged

a sick certificate recently.

Van Wyk says the case was discussed

with the seniorpublic prosecutor andawar-

rant of arrest authorised for him. A notice

of possible suspension was served on him.

He appeared in the Bellville Magistrates

Court on 24 November.

Ten other members of the Parow police,

and one former employee, were also arrest-

ed on charges of fraud and corruption earli-

er in November.

Responding to this at the recent sub-coun-

cil 4 meeting, Clive Justus, chairperson,

predicted more arrests.

I trust the SAPSs anti-corruption unit,

as well as the intelligence gathering by the

drug and gangs task team set up by the sub-

council consisting of SAPS, the department

of justice, the asset forfeiture unit, home af-

fairs and the SouthAfricanRevenue Servic-

es will soon lead to further arrests and pros-

ecution of criminals.

I however would like to emphasise that

there aremore dedicated, diligent and loyal

cops than the few bad apples. Goodwood po-

lice have for the past two years been ac-

knowledged as the best performing station

in the Western Cape, Justus said.

Another cop arrested for fraud

A small wooden desk was hurriedly car-

ried from entrance 2 of TygerbergHospital

last week, when Seskhona Peoples Rights

Movement leader Andile Lili was dischar-

ged and met with more than 500 cheering

supporters.

Lili survived an attack on his life two

weeks earlier when hewas shot four times

in the stomach and arm.

Walking with some effort, Lili was hel-

ped onto the desk that was placed next to

a public order police vehicle to greet his

fans and tell them about his ordeal.

Lili is a former ANC councillor in the

Western Cape and one of the ringleaders

of the so-called poo protesters who dum-

ped human faeces at the Western Cape le-

gislature and Cape Town International

Airport. He was acquitted for this in July.

he penguin stood forlornly in the shal-

low surf staring at the water washing

rhythmically over his feet.

So this is it, he thought to himself.

His short life would end on this beach.

He turned around, barely able to keep his

balance, and looked at Robben Island dip-

ping below the waves on the horizon.

His parents left him to fend for himself too

soon.

Behindhimpeople start gathering innum-

bers, perhaps to join the funeral march.

For amoment his heart beat faster and the

urge to flee gripped him.

He of course didnt know he was standing

on the shore of Melkbosstrand and that so-

meone would soon rescue him from certain

death.

Regardless, he is a penguin, and during

the brief period his parents looked after him

they explicitly told him to be wary of hu-

mans.

The fledgling, who has been christened

Happy Feet by one of the onlookers and local

community police forum chairman John

Taylor, was just hours away from dying of

starvation.

Scared

Happy Feet will one day tell his children

about the time whenMelkbosstrand Private

Schools teacher, Liezl Bestbier, lovingly

took him from Melkbosstrand to Table

Views SouthernAfrican Foundation for the

Conservation of Coastal Birds (Sanccob).

But late on Saturday afternoon, he was

scared.

About 10 people were looking at him trap-

ped between the beach and the wide ocean.

And then, during his darkest moment, he

saw someone jogging towards the group of

uncertain onlookers.

The self-assured woman, who would tem-

porarily become a mother to him, talked

briefly to the onlookers and then slowly mo-

ved towards Happy Feet.

She had awelcoming look in her warm ey-

es.

Bestbier held out her hand, pickedupHap-

pyFeet and tenderlywrappedhim ina towel.

Days later Bestbier told TygerBurger she

has rescued birds before, but never a pen-

guin.

I knew that if a penguin stands there and

just looks and blinks at you then there is no

fight left in them, says Bestbier.

The people there said they phoned Sanc-

cob, but therewas doubtwhether the organi-

sation could come and collect the penguin,

so I decided to take him there myself.

Happy Feet was then carried to Bestbiers

house, only every now and again peeking at

the busy world through the towel.

He saw others staring curiously at Best-

bier and him then before he knew it he was

placed in a box and put in a bigger box.

He might later have deduced that the big-

ger box was a car.

The drive to Sanccob was quite awkward

for a bird notorious for awkwardness.

During the trip the penguins namemight

just as well have been Flappy Feet.

Once the twoarrived inTableViewhewas

immediately taken in, weighed, and tho-

roughly embraced.

He weighed just one kilogram, which is

much lighter than a bird his age should

weigh, says Bestbier.

Global warming

I was told by Sanccob that the chick sea-

son and the moulting season of the parents

are overlapping because of global warming

and human interference. The adults fatten

themselves up, but then theres nobody loo-

king out for the chicks.

Going to sea is then the most hazardous

time of a fledglings life and only about half

of themwho go out for the first time ever re-

turn home.

Sanccobs development andmarketing co-

ordinator, Francois Louw, says it is quite

common during chick season for them to co-

me to the rescue of starving and dehydrated

penguins.

He continues: The penguin was very un-

dernourished, but he was very strong none-

theless.We suspect hewas abandoned by his

parents. During this three week process

when the parents replace their plumage

with a brand new set of waterproof feathers,

they are unable to hunt for fish and feed

their young. The chicks that are not yet rea-

dy to fledge are abandoned and face starvati-

on.

Happy Feet will show the world that he

can survive without the help of his parents.

He will take to the sea as if it is his oyster,

completely reinvigorated by the caringBest-

bier and Sanccob.

One dayhewill have chicks of his ownand

he will tell them of the wide world out there

and about his brush with death.

There are people out there who can be

trusted, he will tell them, and then when

they are big enough to feed themselves, he

will leave.

Right now, he is sure he will keep an eye

on them from a distance.

Happy Feets chicks will never be comple-

tely alone.

Aweek from now, perhaps even a few ye-

ars, I will think of the penguin I saved, says

Bestbier. I hope I made a difference.

Concert and social night at CorpusChristi

The National Institute for Crime Preventi-

on and the Reintegration of Offenders (Ni-

cro), Arrive Alive and South African Bre-

weries have joined forces to reduce drunk

driving andkeep SouthAfricans safe on the

road this festive season with the Road Of-

fence Panel Programme.

People arrested for road traffic offences,

will be able to accessNicro support and ser-

vices via a 24-hour hotline (072 184 6483). As

a start the hotline will only servicing the

Western Cape.

This campaign will run until the end of

January next year, aiming at heightening

awareness of road safety and holding offen-

ders accountable for their behaviour.

With police figures showing that some

195 people are arrested daily driving under

the influence (DUI), and that 71 065 arrests

were made in 2012, drunk driving is one of

the greatest threats to road safety in the

country.

The Road Offences Panel Programme is

aimed at tackling the challenge of drunk

driving through a behavioural programme

and has seen tangible results.

Nicro believes the programme is a more

effective long-term solution than senten-

cing someone to imprisonment for drunk

driving, as prison is not necessarily the

best option for all DUI offenders.

However, it is up to the discretion of ama-

gistrate to decide whether to impose the

course as opposed to a jail sentence or a fi-

ne. The course can also be imposed in com-

bination with other interventions, which

then strengthen the long term behavioural

change results.

Programme started to

change drivers behaviour

Acat show, the last for the year,will be held

on Saturday 29 November from 09:00 to

16:00 in the Durbanville town hall.

The event spans three international

championship cat shows, each held by a dif-

ferent cat club. There will be two visiting

judges from Gauteng.

Special focus will be on semi-longhair

cats like the maine coon, birman and rag-

doll.

Entry fees are R20 for adults, R10 for

children and R10 for pensionars. Families

may enter for R50.

@linnertmb

Bellville kry eersdaags n musiekskool wat

ook diens sal doen as teater.

Di breinkindvanAlwenavanderVyver,

n bekende in gospelkringe in die noordeli-

ke voorstede, gaan eindelik n realiteit

wordnadat haar droomreeds eenkeer tevo-

re in die slag gebly het weens verkeerde so-

nering.

Die gewag is verby! het sy onlangs laat

weet. N maande se gesoek na n geskikte

perseel het die meetsnoere nou in plek ge-

val, s sy.

Die perseel sal die tuiste wees vir die Mu-

siekforum-musiekskool en Metronoom-tea-

ter, en gaan vanaf sy kantore in Nobelpark

in Bellville die kunste ontwikkel.

Alwena s as alles goed afloop, sal die nu-

we skooltjie sy deure amptelik op Maandag

2 Februarie 2015 vir diens oopgooi vir die

gemeenskap.

Afgesien van produksies en solo-optre-

des deur kunstenaars, sal die Metronoom-

teater ook beskikbaar wees vir werksessies

en privaat-funksies. Oudio- en visuele toe-

rustingword opdie oomblik genstalleer, s

Alwena.

Sy s die skool gaan onderrig aanbied in

verskillende instrumente, asook sanglesse,

ligte en klassieke musiek. Die verborge ta-

lente van grootmense sal ontgin word, s

Anena, en di van kinders geslyp word.

Tussen dimusikale ontginning deur, sal

Alwena steeds optree by gemeentes en vir

ander funksies.

Ek sal dit moeilik vind om die pen neer

te sit en nie meer produksies te skryf nie.

Diemeetsnoere het voorwaar in plek ge-

val! s sy.

Alwena soek tans opgeleide instrumenta-

liste en stemafrigters om by die skool aan

te sluit.

V Kontak Alwena by 082 704 9196 met enige na-

vrae.

Nuwemusiekskool sal ook

as teater in Bellville dien

Alwena van der Vyver maak in Februarie n

musiek- en teaterskool in Bellville oop.

Die Bellville-stapklub hou op Saterdag 29

November sy afsluitingstaptog vir 2014.

Di tog neem hulle na die Paarlberg. Die

Requests formedical assistance continue to

dominate calls to the City of Cape Towns

107 Public Emergency Communication

Centre (PECC).

Statistics for the previous festive season

showed the highest number of calls to the

PECC came from Dunoon in Milnerton.

The call centre was established over 10

years ago to provide a single point of con-

tact where people can report an emergency.

Between July 2013 and September 2014,

call centre staff created 401 140 incident re-

cords from themore than 780 000 calls recei-

ved.

Of these, 54% were for medical assistan-

ce, ranging from assault to maternity cases

and abdominal pain. Callers requesting as-

sistance for crime and law enforcement is-

sues accounted for the second highest cate-

gory of calls.

On average, 90% of all calls were answe-

red within 10 seconds.

The city doesnt necessarily provide all

the services that callers require, specifical-

ly medical responses. For example, we are

not in charge of the ambulance service, but

we have a formal system that allows the

agent to patch the caller through to Metro

EMS who is then responsible for ensuring

the response. The same would apply where

a South African Police Service response is

required.Fromaconsumerperspective, its

a single number to remember or save in

their contacts, instead of the number for

each individual service provider, said ci-

tys mayco member for safety and security,

JP Smith.

The PECC expects an increase in the

number of calls from early December until

the end of the festive season.

Unfortunately, there also tends to be an

increase in prank calls during this time of

year, when children on holiday have unsu-

pervised access to telephones at home.

It might seem harmless, but those preci-

ous seconds spent on a prank call couldme-

an life or death for someone else who has

to wait in the queue to speak to an agent.

So parents, please discourageyour children

fromengaging in this behaviour although,

experience has shown that children are not

the only culprits, says Smith.

Prank calls hamper

those in real need

When one walks into any store

or shopping centre, it is clear

the festive season is here.

Everywhere you look, you see

Christmas trimmings and

decorations and stores adver-

tising special offers.

The final touches are being

put on end-of-year work

functions.

People are preparing for the

holidays; whether they are

going away or staying at home,

it is obvious that they are

looking forward to a much-

needed break from work.

But with the festive season

usually comes a spike in

crime, debt and accidents. And

we often forget about the real

meaning of Christmas, as it

has been over-commercialised

over the years.

So try to do things a little

differently this year. If you are

going away, ensure that your

home is burglar-proof, hire a

house sitter or ask your

neighbours to keep an eye on

your property.

When you sit down for

Christmas lunch or dinner

with your family, remember

the value and story behind the

day appreciate the opportuni-

ty you have with your loved

ones and enjoy every minute of

the festive break.

And if you are travelling be

sure to triple check whether

your car is in working order,

do not drive if you are too

tired and always pray for

travelling mercies.

Happy festive season!

I wholeheartedly agree with

Lionel Latigan (Stats show

guns deter criminals, Tyger-

Burger, 5 November).

More than 150 years of global

empirical evidence has shown

Guns needed to

keep crime at bay

that gun control is a miserable

failure to control crime, always

leads to an escalation in violent

crime and frequently precedes

genocide.

The worst genocides of the

previous century all followed

gun control and the concomi-

tant disarmament of civilians.

The saying if guns are out-

lawed only outlaws will own

guns is as true as ever.

Based on the proven fact that

more firearms in civilian hands

leads to a decrease in violent

crime and the governments

proven inability to rid our

society of crime, civilian

firearm ownership should be

encouraged and promoted on all

possible levels.

grandchild were robbed at

knifepoint in Parow, a woman

on her way to Avondale Station

was robbed at knifepoint and in

two incidents women were

robbed at knifepoint by cowards

waiting for them in cars along

the road.

In one case, two attackers

turned and fled when the victim

merely produced a firearm.

Now some stupid fools want us

to believe that by banning the

law-abiding from owning

firearms these type of crimes

would have been prevented?

How foolish could one be?

Until government gets its act

together to permanently and

effectively rid us of crime by

permanently removing them

from society, the law-abiding

will increasingly have to arm

themselves to protect that

which is near and dear to them.

P. VAN WYK

Parow

I refer to the letter Dodgy tax

in foreign shops (TygerBurger,

5 November). This is something

that has been bothering my

husband and myself for some

time. We are fitting the tax bill

for these hangers on. I was

chased out of a store in Brack-

enfell for insisting on a till slip

for my purchase. Our greatest

concern is that when you order

a take-away from one of their

restaurants, they refuse to give

you a slip as proof of purchase.

Should you get sick as a result

of the meal, you have no

recourse. It is time the authori-

ties did what they get paid to

do: protect the citizens of this

beautiful country.

Lack of till slips a

serious concern

There are often situations of

faunal road mortalities around

nature reserves in the city

(Animals under siege, Tyger-

Burger, 19 November).

While these fatalities are

difficult to manage, signs have

been erected to remind motor-

ists to slow down as they need

to be aware that they are in an

area where animals are likely

to be crossing the roads.

The exact number of deaths

is unknown.

Animals naturally move

between food sources and

territories. We also have

natural animal fatalities such

as baby tortoises, which are

dropped by crows to break

their shells, or natural hunting

of small rodents or guinea fowl

by caracal.

Egyptian Geese are indige-

nous and their numbers,

similar to the Hadeda Ibis, are

increasing due to the increased

number of green open spaces

which provide perfect habitats

across the city.

The only manageable way to

prevent animal cruelty is to

form societal partnerships

which combat errant social

behaviour. Residents abutting

nature reserves need to be

especially careful. We encour-

age residents to take the needs

of animals into consideration

and to report any abuses to the

relevant authorities.

SLICE OF LIFE

Seisoen van

blydskap het

ook hartseer

Die feestyd is om die draai. Gewoonlik is

dit n tyd wat met vreugde en blydskap

gepaard gaan waar mense n welver-

diende blaaskans n n dolle jaar kry.

Maar ongelukkig hou die feestyd ook

sekere negatiewe vooruitsigte in.

Dit is n tyd waar die dodetal op ons

paaie vervierdubbel. Mense se haas om

by hul vakansiebestemmings uit te kom,

knip baie keer hul lewens kort.

Jaarliks kom bykans 2 000 sterftes,

hoofsaaklik motorbotsings, in di tyd

voor.

Maak seker dat jy nie een van daardie

statistieke word nie: Gaan jou motor voor

jou reis deeglik na, rus gereeld langs die

pad, hou by die spoedgrens en beoefen

geduld in swaar verkeer.

Ng n realiteit van die feestyd is dat

die misdadigers van ons land dan bedry-

wiger as ooit vantevore is. Hoeveel

vakansies is nie al in die verlede bederf

deur die nuus dat daar by jou huis

ingebreek is nie?

Tref dus alle nodige maatrels om jou

eiendom te beskerm deur nie alleen jou

buurtwag nie, maar ook die nabye

inwoners in jou straat in te lig dat jy nie

daar gaan wees nie. Hoe meer mense

hulle o vir jou oophou, hoe kleiner is

die kans op inbrake.

Laastens, en moontlik een van die

hartseerste aspekte van die feesseisoen, is

die feit dat troeteldiere soms verwaarloos

word. As jy nie kan bekostig om jou

hond in n dierehotel te sit nie, tref

relings dat iemand hom gereeld versorg.

Dit is die minste wat jou troeteldier vra.

A

survey of street people conducted in

shelters and on the streets of Cape

Town showed significant numbers in

the northern suburbs.

The first phase of the surveywas recently

completed after 220 trained field workers

for the citys Social Development and Early

Childhood Development Directorate collec-

ted data over a four-day period in June.

Asample of 2670 street people over theage

of 18 was taken, a headcount done and ques-

tionnaires completed by these respondents.

The data established how long they had

been on the streets, their communities of

origin, what they do to survive on the

streets, and whether or not they use shel-

ters and services within the city.

The highest numbers of street people we-

re counted in the Cape Town city bowl, but

large numbers lived in the northern su-

burbs.

The larger part of Durbanville, Vrede-

kloof, Protea Heights, Philadelphia, Klip-

heuwel, Fisantekaal, Richwood, Bloekom-

bos and a small portion of Wallacedene we-

re home to 6% of respondents.

At Goodwood, up to De La Rey Road, Pa-

row and Ravensmead, (as far as Vanguard

Drive), the number was at 7%.

AtEersteRiver andMfuleni (as far asMa-

cassar and the western part of Somerset

West), 17% of respondents slept on the

steets.

We already have numerous interventi-

ons inplace, saidSuzetteLittle, citymayco

member for social development and early

childhood Development.

Little said the citys data was outdated,

so they decided to gain a better understan-

ding over time of how many people we are

dealing with and look to repurposing our

interventions if need be.

The survey found women would more li-

kelybe found in shelters andmenmore like-

ly on the streets.

A third of the respondents were between

26 and 35 years old.

Of the 1593 who reported on the length of

time that they have been on the street, 17%

had been homeless between one and five ye-

ars, 15% for less than a month to six

months, and 7% had been on the street 16

years or more.

Approximately 15% of respondents re-

ported being on the street out of choice,

with most reporting lack of housing (26%),

the loss of family (18%), substance abuse

(15%), and unemployment and poverty

(15%) as reasons for homelessness.

The survey showed income on the streets

was predominately generated frombegging

(45%), temporary or contract employment

(37%) and social grants (2%).

Those in shelters hadmore access to tem-

porary employment (43%), social grants

(29%) and fewer than 8% resorted to beg-

ging.

This is only the beginning of the process

for us. I have to stress that this is not a defi-

nitive figure of the number of people living

on the street, but it is a start, Little said.

The next phase of the project is to compa-

re the latest data with the findings of previ-

ous surveys and establish trends that could

further shape the directorates street peo-

ple interventions.

T

he City of Cape Town plans to provide

free Wi-Fi at 61 of its buildings by the

end of June 2015.

This free servicewill be provided both in-

side public buildings via the citys 102

SmartCape Computer facilities and outs-

ide via 61 public access hotspots where peo-

ple congregate and queue for services, a sta-

tement said.

These amenities include clinics, admini-

stration buildings, traffic departments, fire

stations and public transport interchanges,

said Hayley van der Woude, the citys me-

dia coordinator.

She said certain areas will be serviced by

December, with the remaining completed

by the end of June 2015.

Connected

The buildings to be connected this year

include the Bellville Clinic, Civic Centre in

Cape Town, Hillstar Administration Buil-

ding, Mitchells Plain and Nyanga Swit-

ching Centres, Parow Community Health

Clinic, Plumstead Administration Buil-

ding, Robbie Nurock Clinic and Site B Yo-

uth Clinic.

Each access point will cost between

R60 000 and R100 000 to install, she said.

The city partnered with service provi-

ders MWEB, Internet Solutions and Oran-

ge, a French telecommunications company.

a free data bundle of 50 MB per day, while

MWEB will provide an uncapped data

bundle for the trial period, Van derWoude

said.

Plans to provide Wi-Fi on MyCiTi buses

are being investigated, she said.

Economic growth

Broadband connectivity and digital in-

clusion are fundamental to creating an

enabling environment for business deve-

lopment, economic growth and social cohe-

sion, she said.

ESME ERASMUS

To receive your take-away pizza with an al-

coholic beverage in Durbanville at your

front door, could become reality.

An application for extension of liquor tra-

ding hours for off-consumption for ColCac-

chio Durbanville at Spiros Corner was re-

commended for approval at the subcouncil

7 meeting last Monday 17 November.

ColCacchio motivated its application for

extension from Monday to Saturday from

18:00 to 20:00 now that themajority of its bu-

siness is either take-away collections or ho-

me deliveries.

The pizzeria has an existing off-consump-

tion licence which enables customers to

buy a bottle of wine or beer to take away

with their meals.

According to the conditions of the exis-

ting off-consumption licence, the identity

number of a client must be recorded when

liquor is ordered, and must be verified on

delivery.

Furthermore, the current licence stipula-

tes that liquor may only be delivered with

a food order.

GerhardFourie, chairpersonof sub-coun-

cil 7 (Koeberg), said the same conditions im-

posed on the existing licence must also be

applicable on the extension of liquor tra-

ding hours.

104fm is die me-

diaborge vandie

konsert, wat

vanjaar vir die

vierde keer aan-

gebied word.

Klassieke

Kersfees van

2014 spog met

vyf van die land

se top-kunste-

naars, almal

met unieke

stemme. Jannie

Moolman en

Zanne Stapel-

berg is reeds se-

dert die eerste

jaar deel van die

konsert. Vir Co-

bus Snyman sal

dit die tweede keerweeswat hy sy buiging

maak by Klassieke Kersfees. Hy was die

groot verrassing by verlede jaar se kon-

sert en het die skare op hul voete gehad

met sy rasperstem,wat baie klink soos di

van Bryan Adams. Die twee nuwelinge

vanjaar kom al die pad van Gauteng af.

CorleaBotha enRobbieWessels sal sorg

vir n interessante dimensie en die gehoor

kan uitsien na n paar van hul gewildste

treffers. In baie gevalle sal dit slegs by

Klassieke Kersfees wees waar di kunste-

naars saam as groep sal sing. Heelwat du-

ette is ook ingesluit in die program, inslui-

tend Cobus en Zanne se weergawe van

WhiteChristmas en Jannie enCorlea se

vertolking van Vivo per Lei. Die pro-

gram is propvol Kersliedere waar die ge-

hoor genooi word om saam te sing, asook

heelwat tydlose treffers. Jannie,wat indie

verlede beskryf is as iemand wat klassie-

ke musiek meer toeganklik gemaak het,

s di konsert is een van sy gunstelinge

op sy jaarkalen-

der, juis omdat

dit iets vir almal

bied. Klassieke

Kersfees is alles

behalwe net vir

die connois-

seur, s Jannie.

Die klassieke

treffer Va Pen-

siero, wat Jan-

nie die aand on-

der meer gaan

sing, beloof om

n staande toe-

juiging te kry.

Hy gaan ook n

paar liedjies

saammet Corlea

en Zanne sing.

Corlea en

Zanne het albei ongelooflike stemme en

dit is altyd n voorreg om saam met hulle

te sing. Ook op die program is verskeie

Kersliedere, wat die kunstenaars saam

met die gehoor en n massakoor van die

Frank Pietersen-musieksentrum gaan

sing. Diemusikale direkteur, Melissa van

derSpuy, het n simfonie-orkes van 29 lede

saamgestel wat ook die aand gaan optree.

n Deel van die inkomste van die kon-

sert, wat aangebied word deur Tygerval-

lei-sentrum, word vanjaar aanDie Burger

se Kersfonds geskenk.

Kaartjies, wat wissel tussen R130 en

R150, is beskikbaar by Computicket.

Corlea Botha en Robbie Wessels kom al die pad

van Gauteng af om by vanjaar se Klassieke

Kersfees op te tree.


The City of Cape Towns festive season co-

ordinating committee has drafted a plan to

ensure thehighest level of preparedness for

the busy holiday period.

The plan focus areas include emergency

response, policing, ensuring safety at pub-

lic amenities such as beaches, road safety,

cleansing, enforcement of by-laws, and sub-

stance abuse.

The city will make the following services

available over the festive season:

. 1 430 Metro police, law enforcement

and traffic officers patrolling roads and

beaches and conducting operations

. 900 firefighters available for anymajor

incidents

. 240 firefighters on shift at any given

time at the citys 30 fire stations

. An additional 120 seasonal firefighters

. 250 lifeguards available on a rotational

basis; on average there will be about 70 life-

guards manning city beaches every day

. 1 864 temporary staff members to en-

hance the cleansing services capacity

This year, Transport for Cape Town will

pilot a plan for theAtlantic Seaboard on the

Day of Goodwill (Friday 26 December) and

New Years Day (Thursday 1 January),

which will see a dedicated team of 20 traffic

officers deployed to manage traffic flow on

the two major beach days.

The community services directorate will

ensure blue flag beaches are kept pristine,

andwill prioritise the safety of beachgoers.

The city has partnered with Lifesaving

Western Province, who will deploy 250 life-

guards in addition to their volunteer serv-

ices at all popular beaches.

In order to deal with the increased de-

mand on services during this period, the

citys plan provides for top-up cleaning

services covering all business areas, scenic

routes, and beaches throughout the metro.

A total of 1 864 temporary staff from the Ex-

panded Public Works Programme (EPWP)

will be deployed to various areas and will

provide the added capacity needed.

n Slaggat in die pad is n slaggat in enige

motoris se lewe.

slaggate te rapporteer n n eenvoudige,

mobiele webblad juis vir di doel beskik-

baar gestel is en reeds 226 munipaliteite

betrek.
