BLACKHEATH: SENTRUM ONTWIKKEL VAARDIGHEDE

Themba vier 20 jaar CARINA ROUX

T

wintig jaar gelede, op 15 September 2000, het die Themba-werksentrum vir gestremdes in Blackheath met agt mense begin.

Deesdae werk gemiddeld 45 mense by die sentrum, wat kontrakwerk vir sakeondernemings en ook herwinning doen, sê die stigter, Joey Oerson. Sy het destyds as arbeidsterapie-assistent by die Karl Bremeren Tygerberg-hospitale gewerk saam met onderskeidelik Rina Hartzenberg en Alma van Hoogstraaten. Dié twee arbeidsterapeute was haar mentors, sê sy. Die rehabilitasie-eenheid sou uitreike in die gemeenskap doen. “Ons het agtergekom as ons nie daar is nie, gebeur daar niks. Die mense sit net.”

Sy sê van die gestremdes is baie goedgelowig en word dikwels misbruik of afgeskeep.

“Hulle kry nie die nodige aandag nie.”

Dit het haar gemotiveer om die werksentrum te begin – ’n plek waar hulle bedags bymekaar kan kom met hul eie portuur en dinge kon doen om hulle besig te hou. Die werk wat hulle doen is meestal die sleurwerkies van ander maatskappye. Daar is dus twee afdelings – kontrakwerk en herwinning (meestal plastiek). Almal ontvang sakgeld vir die werk wat hulle doen, maar moet ook nog steeds hul gestremdheidstoelae eis.

Die sentrum akkommodeer mense met verstandelike en fisieke gestremdhede van Blackheath en Kuilsrivier en omliggende gebiede soos Mfuleni, Eersterivier, Malibu Village, Delft en Belhar.

Hul doel is om mense te help om vaardighede te ontwikkel en hulle ’n geleentheid te gee om deel te wees van die ope mark.

Die werksdag duur van 08:00 tot 16:00 en Vrydae tot 15:00. Vir sommiges raak die werksdag lank en die produktiwiteit neem namiddag af. Oerson sê omdat baie mense hul werk weens die Covid-19-pandemie verloor het, is daar nou van dié mense wat hulle betrek het om met die herwinning te help.

Die werksentrum kon in Junie weer heropen. “Toe hulle terugkom, kon ek sien die mense was nie op dieselfde peil waar hulle was voor ons toegemaak het nie,” sê Oerson.

Sy gee toe al die nuwe higiënemaatreëls is ’n uitdaging.

VAN BLADSY 1 “Ons het reëls in plek, maar hulle vergeet hul maskers; ons moet hulle aanmekaar daaraan herinner. Geduld, nog geduld en nog geduld; daar is nie einde nie.”

Margaret Endale, wat vroeër by die Betel Skool vir Gestremdes gewerk het en nou die administrasie by die sentrum behartig, sê dit is ook maar moeilik met afstand hou.

“Van hulle verstaan nie lekker hoekom mag jy nie (’n drukkie gee nie). Ons bid maar die Here bewaar ons en spuit heeldag sanitiser en was hande.” Sy mis die onderwys, maar sê sy geniet die uitdaging by die werksentrum.

Oerson sê die werk was darem nog altyd redelik konstant. Sy hoop dat die sentrum sal voortgaan vir die volgende 20 jaar, al dink sy nie sy gaan tot dan nog daar wees nie. “Ek wil hulle onafhanklik hê.”

rovincial minister of finance David Maynier last week launched the Western Cape Covid-19 Business Relief Fund, which commits R27 million to supporting small businesses in both the formal and informal sectors who have been hard-hit by Covid-19 restrictions.

“We know that times have been tough for businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic.

“The fund will provide financial assistance in the form of a financial grant to businesses who can apply to either the formal or informal business category.

“The grant will be used exclusively to subsidise business expenses such as fixed costs, operational costs, supplier debt and other pressure cost items,” he said in a statement to the media.

“With the move to alert level 1 which allows more businesses to safely open, this fund is an important step in our economic recovery plan to help businesses to rebuild and save jobs in the Western Cape.

“And so, I would like to encourage all interested small businesses to apply.

“We look forward to receiving your submissions.”

The closing date for submissions is Monday, 12 October 2020 at 10:00.

Roadworks should be completed end of year CARINA ROUX

ALL DENTAL SERVICES

T

urning the 1.3km section of Langverwacht Road between Amandel and Zevenwacht Link roads into a dual carriageway was originally envisaged to take two years. The hope that the work would have been completed by February this year faded long before.

In January 2019 TygerBurger reported that 40% of the work was completed, and that the project suffered delays as a result of a number of underground services, such as electrical cables that needed to be dealt with, and flooding down the Langverwacht Canal that led to a delay in the construction of the stormwater culvert in winter. At the time it was estimated that the total expenditure of the project would be R49.4m.

Rumours that another contractor was appointed was denied by Felicity Purchase, the City of Cape Town Mayco member for transport, when TygerBurger enquired about the project in February. Purchase confirmed that an extension was granted.

“In accordance with the contract a contractor can ask for the contract time to be extended when there are delays not attributed to them, and when additional work is added.

We have altered the design of the intersection of Langverwacht and Zevenwacht Link roads to add an extra right-turn lane to assist with the traffic flow, and to relief traffic congestion.”

The work was then envisaged to be completed by the second week of June.

Work ceased with the implementation of the national lockdown and only resumed earlier this month (September). Purchase says the project should now be completed by

PHOTO: CARINA ROUX December. “We need to complete the final surface layer and a few ancillary works. The road is already being used as a dualled road.”

She says the project cost is estimated to increase to approximately R58m in total.

“The increase is due to unforeseen delays including the national lockdown, and the

shortage of bitumen in the country and contract price adjustment. Some additional work was also included while the contractor was busy on site. These include a bigger stormwater system and the additional lanes at the intersection with Link Road to accommodate the future extension of Zevenwacht Link Road at this intersection.”

Public to apply for firework display If you love firework displays, you will now need to apply for a permit.

This is according to the City of Cape Town saying that in terms of the National Explosives Act and the community fire safety by-law, people wishing to host fireworks displays will be able to apply for a permit to do so.

As was the case in 2019, fireworks displays will only be allowed where a permit has been applied for in terms of the relevant legislation.

The City’s Mayco member for safety and security, JP Smith, said any event where 200-plus attendees are expected, or that requires any infrastructure build, will also require an events permit from the City.

“The City wishes to reiterate that, while it has, in years gone by, provided designa­ted fireworks sites, there is no obligation to do so and since 2019 has no longer provided designated fireworks sites for Guy Fawkes, Diwali and New Year’s Eve. “As we indicated last year, the public will need to apply for a permit for a fireworks display as we no longer provide des-

ignated sites.

“There is growing public sentiment opposing the use of fireworks, and we have also seen a decreased appetite from subcouncils to approve designated sites,” Smith said.

He added that the cost of running the sites and making resources available to monitor activities and clean up the aftermath, a picture emerges of why the designated site allocation is not feasible.

“Furthermore, the designated sites have done little to deter the illegal discharge of fireworks in residential areas, which is an ongoing problem.

“Firework displays can still be applied for, in terms of the relevant legislation,” Smith explained.

People who would like to apply for a permit to host a firework display need to apply to the police via email at capetown.explosives.cmrd@saps.gov.za.

Smith said the community should contact the head of the City’s fire and life safety section in their application via email at Ignatius.smart@capetown.gov.za.

Entrepreneur gets a boost Z

anele Mbondwana from Kuils River was recently announced one of 20 small business owners who will receive a much-needed cash injection, marketing support and a short business course from Get Smarter as part of Shoprite’s 2020 Hustle competition. The competition aims to celebrate and support small businesses with potential, to help them grow further. All small businesses that have been in operation for at least six months may enter.

Mbondwana started her online home décor and lighting store, House of Zanele, in 2017. She has always loved interior decor and design but struggled to find high-quality home decor items at an affordable price and so her business was born.

With the boost received from Shoprite, she hopes to invest in an e-commerce platform. Currently customers can browse her products online but must order via a webform.

“I am delighted to have won and thanks to Shoprite I can now set up an e-commerce shop. It will alleviate a lot of the administration currently involved in the buying process and will ensure a safer, more secure, and smoother shopping experience. It will save a lot of time for both my customers and I, allow me to concentrate on sourcing a bigger variety of products at the best prices and attract new customers,” said Mbondwana.

She also hopes to partner with other existing e-commerce platforms to offer her products more widely and enable her to employ staff so that she can also help reduce unemployment.

Be vigilant about kidnapping threat P

arents must be vigilant and teach their children about the threats of kidnapping.

An attempted kidnapping was recently reported in Kuils River, and earlier a video of a man trying to grab a child from its parents in Gauteng was widely shared on social media.

“While we certainly don’t want to live in fear, we do need to have frank conversations about what to do when things go wrong,” says Charnel Hattingh, communications manager at security company Fidelity ADT. She shares the following advice: . Children must always walk to or from school with a friend or friends. They must stick to streets they know and never take short cuts through quiet areas or empty par-

king lots. They should never walk with cellphones or tablets in full view. . Children picked up at school should never leave the premises, but always wait inside the school grounds for their lift to arrive. . Younger children particularly must never get into a stranger’s car; even if the stranger claims that someone they love is hurt and that they have been sent to pick them up. Remind them that you would never send someone they don’t know to fetch them. . Consider using a password system. If the person coming to collect the child from school cannot repeat the password you and your child agreed on, they should not get into the car but immediately ask for help. . If a stranger approaches your child, they should not talk to them no matter how

friendly they may seem. If someone tries to grab them, they need to fight, kick and shout. . If your child does encounter any suspicious activity, encourage them to get a good look and memorise their physical details and clothing, as well as the vehicle they are in. . Make sure your children memorise their full name, address and phone number.

Teach them when and how to dial 10111. Older children should have some emergency numbers programmed to their phone or consider having a safety app on their phone. . Older children should be reminded to keep their valuables out of sight and not to use headphones, because this will dampen their ability to sense their surroundings.

. Alter their route: If they are walking home or to public transport, they need to alter their route. Even if it takes longer, always use a route that is well lit and populated with houses and other walkers instead of taking shortcuts through less-friendly areas. If you feel threatened, you can at least knock on someone’s door for help in a familiar neighbourhood. . If you are using a taxi service, ensure it is an authentic service provider. . Be extra cautious to meet anyone who befriends you on social media. Always meet in a public space with two or three friends close by. . Be cautious to be lured by people offering you a job or modelling contract. Remember, safety in numbers.

SLICE OF LIFE

Sibling rivalry a recipe for disaster Sibling rivalry has been around since the second generation of mankind. At least that is what those like myself, who take what is written in the Holy Book as the gospel truth, believe.

The plus side of this kind of feud between families is that those involved strive to become the best version of themselves and make a success of their lives.

Although they would never admit it, mothers secretly encourage the competitive relationships because it builds character.

The problem, however, comes when this rivalry carries on well into the siblings’ adulthood and is no longer cute for the mother to witness.

These are the nightmares that mothers dread wholeheartedly. They dread it because it gets really ugly.

Growing up, I was the youngest of three children. My brother, the middle child was the favourite and my uncle, well his troublesome behaviour always rubbed everyone off the wrong way.

Although he was our uncle, we considered him our brother because there was no huge age gap between him and my brother.

Looking back at those days, I now realise that my once obedient uncle got tired of always having to prove his capabilities.

As for me, I could not care less what the others thought of me. I was too young to compete with teenagers anyway.

While my mother and grandmother tried to call a truce between the two, clearly favouring the middle child, the young me was busy engaging in his daily tolletjie brei activity.

This war between my two older siblings lasted until July last year when my dearest uncle, well in his forties, succumbed to a long illness.

What the rest of my family does not realise though, is that the troublesome oldest sibling never got over the so-called rivalry. To him it was betrayal more than anything, the favour his younger counterpart always had over him.

It killed his confidence, the way he shrunk in the presence of my brother was too obvious to ignore. It was too sad to witness, if you ask me.

One would ask themself who is to blame for this. Did my uncle bring it upon himself or could this have been avoidable from the beginning?

I think the elders are to blame.

Yes their motive for allowing this competitive behaviour was to help the young men build character, but to let it carry on beyond their young adulthood is enough to send the other to an early grave.

To avoid resentment between siblings, parents need to teach their children from an early age to support each other in whatever they do.

Encouraging competition between siblings can only have damaging repercussions that could divide families for many generations.

As the saying goes: “Together we stand, divided we fall.”

Sibling rivalry will make it easier for the enemy to enter into the household and destroy it forever. Once destroyed, picking up the piece will be almost impossible when feelings of resentment, bitterness and anger towards each other are felt.

No matter how cute it might seem, parents need to stop encouraging competitive behaviour between siblings and teach them to always support one another. - Thabang Kuaho

South Africans to celebrate Garden Day: On Sunday 11 October, people across the country will celebrate their unique green spaces and gardens in every shape and size. Created by gardening app Candide, Garden Day is a growing movement uniting people in their love for plants and flowers since 2016. Over the past few months, South Africans have turned to their green spaces to find solace and balance. With spring in the air, it offers a chance to pause, reflect, and celebrate a season of new beginnings. Pictured is Garden Day grass roots champion, Kaylyn van As, in her veggie garden at her home in Table View.

BRIEWE briewe@tygerburger.co.za|Faks: 021 910 6501|Posbus 747, Bellville 7535|Briewe wat nie langer is as 250 woorde nie, sal voorkeur geniet. Verskaf asb. u naam, adres en telefoonnommer by (nie vir publikasie). Spertyd is Vrydag om 12:00

Wie is vriend, wie is vyand?

Elke dag word statistieke gegee van sterfgevalle van Covid-19 en miljarde rande word bestee om dit hok te slaan.

Maar ek maak die afleiding dat die daaglikse moordsyfer soms meer, soms minder, is as die Covid-19-gevalle en dit wil voorkom of dit eenvoudig aanvaar word.

Gewelddadige misdaad is besig om hand uit te ruk.

Elke dag word babas vermoor en verkrag; vroue word doodgeslaan. Daar is plaasaanvalle, gewelddadige bendegeweld, kinderontvoering en gewapende huisrooftogte. Gewelddadige oproer waarin infrastruktuur beskadig en vernietig word, vind plaas en so gaan die misdaadlys aan.

Jy kan nie eie reg gebruik om jouself te beskerm nie, want die polisie, aldus die Grondwet, is vir ons veiligheid verantwoordelik.

Die polisie is magteloos aangesien die meerderheid van die gemeenskap nie bereid is om betrokke te raak by misdaadbekamping nie, want hulle vertrou nie die polisie nie.

Ek kan dit verstaan, want elke dag lees jy in die media van polisielede wat aangekeer word vir ernstige misdade – hetsy aan diens of van diens, asook lede wat steeds in diens is met opgeskorte vonnisse vir ernstige misdade. Die ergste van alles is dat hierdie misdadigers tot op senior vlak voorkom.

Die minister van polisie, Bheki Cele, was destyds die polisiekommissaris en is onder ’n donker wolk uit die polisie geskors en later weer aangestel as die minister van polisie.

My beskeie mening is dat hy geensins ’n idee het wat van hom verwag word nie behalwe om arrogant te wees en die volk te dreig dat hy hulle sal toesluit vir geringe oortredings soos die oortreding van Covid-19-regulasies.

Wanneer gaan die regering wakker skrik en besef dat die meerderheid van ons polisie onbekwaam is – van voetsoolvlak tot senior bestuur, die minister ingesluit, en dit gaan nie net die volk benadeel nie ... buitelandse toeriste gaan nie hul lewe waag om ons land te besoek nie.

Ek is bevrees dit staan soos ’n paal bo water dat vigilante optrede ons voorland gaan wees.

Waar is ons munisipaliteit en owerhede?

Nêrens in Brackenfell kan jy vandag rondry en die sypaadjies miskyk nie.

Die onkruid staan in sommige strate meer as ’n meter hoog.

Ek het al hoeveel keer Stad Kaapstad gekontak en versoeke gerig op die Stad Kaapstadapplikasie, maar niks het nog gebeur nie.

Op die hoek van Kruis- en Brackenstraat het ’n waterpyp gebars en die munisipaliteit was daar om dit te herstel, maar die sypaadjie is net so gelos. Die grond is nie gelyk gemaak nie.

As jy in Kruisstraat van die verkeersdepartement af ry na die stasie toe, sien jy aan albei kante van die sypaadjie hoe hoog die onkruid staan.

Jakaranda-parkie is vuil en op die terrein aan die oorkant waar die ou Voortrekkersaaltjie staan, is die onkruid net so hoog. Daar slaap ’n man in ’n tent op hierdie terrein en

wetstoepassing doen niks daaraan nie.

Die stasie is vuil en onwettige straatverkopers (straatmense) verkoop hul gesteelde artikels daar.

Kyk hoe lyk die terrein langs KFC in Ruwari.

En as jy al hierdie dinge aanmeld, dan sê die persoon aan die ander kant net hulle sal vir jou ’n SMS stuur.

Wat gaan dít help? Waar is ons wyksraadlede?

Is daar nog bevoegde mense in ons stadsraad?

Wat van reg op privaatheid?

Ek dink dit is uitstekend dat Johan Fritz en Eben Nel die gemeenskap deur middel van hommeltuie gaan help om misdaad te help bekamp.

Uit ’n regsaspek wil ek net graag weet hoe hulle die kwessie oorbrug wat betrekking het op die reg op privaatheid. Met ’n hommeltuig kan jy inzoem op ’n persoon se erf en selfs ook deur vensters kyk.

Rabbits in area a problem We at Langeberg Ridge have a big problem with rabbits.

We have been complaining about rabbits but neighbours are feeding the rabbits arround the park. Currently, we cannot utilise our park or walk our dogs properly. Dogs are going crazy at night when rabbits are about.

We are already scared that our neighbors without dogs will complain.

Where an to whom can we escalated the issue to?

Dienslewering bereik nuwe laagtepunt Die munisipaliteit was nog nooit goed met die bestuur van sy werkers nie.

Ons ken almal die situasie waar werk geskep word in groepe waar twee werk en agt rus.

Onlangs, in vlak 1, het dit egter ’n nuwe laagtepunt bereik.

Ek en sewe ander sit op die stoep van die munisipale kantore vir die een teller om ons te help. Ek is tweede in die ry, maar dit neem 45 minute.

Toe sien ons ’n tipiese voorbeeld van personeelgebruik.

Oorkant ons is ’n munisipale werker besig om die parkeerplek skoon te vee met ’n besem op wiele.

Van die besems is opgetel (vir minder weerstand). Hy het handskoene aan (vir eelte) en is besig met sy selfoon vir oproepe en musiek (multi-tasking).

Vandat ons begin tel het, het hy 25 keer dieselfde 10 x 3m stukkie parkeergebied “gevee”.

Heen-en-weer, heen-en-weer.

Toe ek daar wegry, was hy nog nie klaar nie en dieselfde blare het op dieselfde plek gelê as toe ek gekom het!

Dit was in die oggend en sy skof was seker tot namiddag ... en dan kom môre.

Alles het reg voor belastingbetalers plaasgevind en ons moet daarvoor opdok.

Dis skrikwekkend hoe geld gemors word.

Volgende jaar met die verkiesing moet ons hulle weer ondersteun.

Prioriteitslys 1 tot 4: beter salarisse, meer werkers, hoër tariewe, groter skuld en eers by nommer 27, produktiwiteit!

Desalination plants take final bow T

he Monwabisi desalination plant is being decommissioned as the twoyear period for which it was hired has come to an end.

Decommissioning of its counterpart in Strandfontein already commenced in June this year, and is currently underway.

The City commissioned both the Monwabisi and Strandfontein temporary desalination plants to provide emergency water supply in the event that it was needed, as we faced the prospect of Day Zero.

“The Monwabisi temporary desalination plant bids farewell at a very different time to when it was first commissioned during the worst drought in the Cape. Dam levels have recently reached 98,2% as of 21 September,” the City stated in a media release on Monday 28 September.

“The City has made big strides towards implementation of larger schemes, as outlined in our water strategy. The first water from the Table Mountain Group Aquifer abstraction programme has already come online, contributing around 15 million litres of groundwater per day to our water supply.

“Operation of these plants has provided valuable hands-on experience in producing desalinated water, which will help us as we work towards larger scale desalination projects. The experience taught us a lot about the management of a desalination plant, and built confidence that this is a viable way of reliably producing good quality drinking water,” said Xanthea Limberg, Mayco member for water and sanitation in the City.

“Once the plant has been shut down,

the infrastructure will be removed in phases by the contractor. Timeframes for the removal of infrastructure will largely be dependent on the weather and sea conditions. During this time, public access to sections of the area may be limited, at short notice, depending on the scope of the work.

The area on which the plant was built will be restored to its former condition.

“An environmental control officer will monitor the rehabilitation work,” she said.

According to Limberg, local community members were given work opportunities throughout the duration of the project. “Residents are advised that it is likely there will be a slight change to the taste of water as supply shifts back to surface water, but are assured that the strict Sans241 standards remain in place and that the water remains safe to drink.”

Water security going forward Limberg said the drought showed that the City needed to accelerate diversification of waters sources quickly. “The strategy for doing so is outlined in the City’s water strategy, which seeks to ensure that Cape Town will be more resilient to climate change and other shocks. The City is committed to increasing supply by building affordable new capacity of approximately 300 million litres per day over the next 10 years, and in suitable increments thereafter.

SOFTBALL: LOCAL SEASON STILL OFF THE CARDS

Waiting for dust to settle NOORE NACERODIEN

T

he 2020/2021 local softball season, run by the Cape Town Softball Association (CTSA), will not go ahead.

The softball season usually runs from October to March every year.

The previous season only managed to finish a matter of days before the lockdown was officially implemented.

The pandemic had a major effect on the sport locally, which has five women and three men’s leagues with many youth teams.

Nationally, events such as the National Provincial Championships, normally held in March, was also cancelled.

However, the government stance regarding softball as a non-contact sport has baffled players and administrators alike – who have the collective thought, saying, “there’s nothing soft about it”.

The dust will stand thick when players clash at a base. Contact between opposing

players is inevitable.

The majority of clubs supported the Cape Town Softball Association’s (CTSA) executive committee in their proposal not to play the 2020/2021 season.

The CTSA will, however, review the status of the pandemic at the end of November for a possible start in January 2021, albeit a shortened competition season.

The cost to ensure that the playing venues are compliant in terms of regulatory requirements is exorbitant, but CTSA chairperson Hayley Carolus says health and safety is of paramount importance.

“We are responsible and held accountable for their safety and their loved ones at home.

It was by no means easy to propose the ‘no play’ (decision). We are all eager to return back to the field of play to continue enjoying this beautiful game we all love so dearly.

“However, this is no normal season we are living in, and we are heading into an uncertain future. We are living in extraordinary

times and I hope times that we will never experience in our lifetime again,” she said.

“By moving to alert level 1, we have to be extremely cautious and keep practising social distancing, washing of hands regularly, wearing a mask, as we are now more vulnerable than ever, with limited borders and airports opening up. I would rather want our softball fraternity to be safe, healthy and living than to return to the field of play too soon and be at risk of any danger,” Carolus added.

Nazeem Dulvie, veteran coach of current Super League champions, Westridge Yankees Softball Club, echoed the sentiment, questioning the government’s view that the sport is a non-contact sport.

“Surely the ones who are categorising the code as non-contact has not watched this beautiful game being played at an elite level.

“Pick-off plays on bases are exciting and contact is inevitable. Not to mention those close plays at home plate when players collide as well as ‘run-downs’,” he says.

Dulvie adds that the pandemic has had a major impact on preparations, especially considering the closure of facilities for most of the lockdown period, while limited resources exacerbate the safe return to action.

“Not all players can afford their own equipment, and this has added to the lack of proper preparations. We need to look at the holistic wellbeing of our athletes and the effects possible Covid-19 infections can have on them physically, emotionally and financially. Even though we might have younger ‘low risk’ athletes competing, these athletes go home where they might live with ‘highrisk individuals’.

“Also considering that our more experienced technical staff are older and at a higher risk than the players. This sport has stood the test of time and will be there way after the Covid-19 pandemic has been surpassed.

“It is time to take caution and protect our players, technical and their families,” Dulvie concluded.
