WATER SUPPLY DISRUPTION: FIRGROVETuesday 14 April 2015

The City of Cape Town’s Water and Sanitation Department will be completing a zero pressuretest on the water supply zone in Firgrove on Tuesday 14 April 2015.

This process will result in the disruption of the water supply to Firgrove from 22:00 until04:00 the following morning.

Careful consideration has been given to the planning of this work to ensure minimaldisruption to the water supply in the affected area.

The water supply network across the City is divided into reticulation zones which are smallerand much more manageable sections of the large network for purposes of maintenanceand upgrades. This work forms part of the City’s Water Demand Management Plan and willsignificantly reduce the occurrence of pipe bursts and the subsequent water losses.

Residents are advised to store water in clean sealed containers for domestic use duringthis period.

The City regrets any inconvenience caused.

ACHMAT EBRAHIMCITY MANAGER84/2015

A Peace Walk was held in Sir Lowry’s Pass Village on Saturday 28 March. The walk, initiated by the KingdomBuilders Ministries International congregation, was aimed at ridding the community of gangsterism and toregain peace in the community, after a recent spate of violence that ended in two fatal shootings.

Paul Steyn bly passievol“Ek het ’n passie vir mense”.

Dit is al manier hoe Paul Steyn kan ver-duidelikhoekomhysyleweentydspandeerom ander te help.

Paulseregterbeenisopdieouderdomvan13 jaar geamputeer ná ’n fratsongeluk in2000.

Steyn het egter nie toegelaat dat dit homonderkry nie.

Hy het soos voorheen met sy lewe aan ge-gaan en ná skool by Boland Kollege op Wor-cester gaan studeer.

Dis hier dat hy besef het dat hy dit genietom met mense te werk en die gemeenskapte help waar hy kan.

“Ek het gesien hoe moeilik dit vir menseiswatniegeldhet om ’nprostese tebekostignie.Ekhetbesefdatekietsdaaromtrentkandoen”, vertel hy.

Sedertdien het Steyn talle lang afstandstaptogte aangepak om geld in te samel.

In 2012 het Steyn besluit om sy organisa-sie, die Paul Steyn Foundation te begin. Hyhet tot op hede reeds agt persone gehelp om’n prostese te bekom.

“Prostese is baie duur en dit vat tyd omdie geld in te samel. ’n Paar individue enmaatskappye in die Helderberg skenk ge-reeldgeldenekisewigdankbaardaarvoor”,sê Steyn.

Sy organisasie fokus nie net op Suid Afri-ka nie, maar ook op buurlande.

“SelfsmenseuitNoord-Afrikakontakonsen ek wens ek kon almal help”, sê hy.

Volgens Paul gaan die kandidate deur ’nkeuringsproses.

“Ons kyk na die persoon se omstandighe-de en hoe groot ’n verskil die prostese in diepersoonselewekanmaak.Ennatuurlikkrykinders voorkeur”, vertel Steynmet passie.

Steyn is ’n natuur- en geskiedenisliefheb-ber en geniet vreeslik die besoeke aan kleindorpies langs sy staproetes.

Hy en sy span het by die Lotto-fonds vir

finansiering aansoek gedoen om sodoendemeer mense te kan help.

“My lewensmissie is om mense te kanhelp. Dis al wat ek wil doen vir die res vanmylewe,stapenmensedaardeurhelp”,ver-tel hy met ’n vonkel in sy oë.

Steyn se avonture is onlangs op die web-tuiste, Awesome South Africans, gepubli-seer.

“Ek is geëerd om in dieselfde kategorieas soveel andermerkwaardigeSuid-Afrika-ners geplaas te word” sê hy van die geleent-heid.

Steyn durf weer die pad vanaf Parys naOrkney aan op Maandag 13 April.

“Ons sal in Potchefstroom, Stilfontein enKlerksdorp aangaan en ons eindig in Ork-ney. In Stilfontein sal ek ’n prostese aan ’nblinde jong vrou oorhandig”, sê hy.

Hy is lief vir die lewe en dit wat hy doen.“Die lewe is baie mooi en staan nie stil

nie – ’n mens moet dit lewe”, sê hy.Vir meer inligting oor Paul Steyn en sy

organisasie, besoek sy webtuiste by paul-steynfoundation.org.za.

Paul Steyn, wat sy been verloor het toe hy 13was, praat hier met ’n paar besoekers aan dieAwesome South Africans-uitstalling gedurendedie Cape Getaway ekspo in Maart.

Talle mense maak daagliks ge-bruik van staatshospitale enklinieke.HelderbergGazettehetgaan uitvind wat mense dinkvan hierdie instansies.

Hazel Swanepoel: My ondervindingmet staatshospitale is nie ’n goeiestorie nie. My seun was baie siekmaar hulle het geweier om toetse tedoen. Die dokters het hom vir lanknet vir lae rugpyn behandel, maarna verdere ondersoek deur ’n privatedokter is daar ontdek dat hy kankerin ’n gevorderde stadium het.

RichardRossouw:Die toestandebystaatshospitale en klinieke is pate-ties. Ek dink dat dit dieselfde diensasprivaat hospitalemoet lewer.Diepersoneel se houdings is baie keersleg. Die moeilike omstandighedewaaronder hulle werk en hul lae sa-larisse kan dalk bydra tot dit.

Cleston Scholtz: Dis ’n goeie dingvir die gemeenskap, veral virmense wat nie ’n mediese fondskan bekostig nie.

Eric Bakus: I really have no qualmswith state hospitals or clinics. I dohowever think there should bemore facilities to accommodatepeople. Also, the staff working atthese places should work on theirattitude towards patients. Thatmakes visits to hospitals and clin-ics unpleasant.

Anthony Maphurire: Visiting statehealth facilities is an inconven-ience. It takes up so much timeand some people go very early inthe morning to only go home theevening. As if that’s not badenough, patients have to endurebad service and attitudes from thestaff.

Anna-Marie Burger: In my ervaringis staatshospitale en klinieke sediens vreeslik swak. Mens sit solank daar, een naweek het ek vanafdie Vrydag daar gesit en is eersdieSondaggehelp.Meeste vandiepersoneel ignoreer jou net en kyknie rêrig na die pasiënte nie. FO-TO’S: TAMSYN JANTJIES

Menings oor staatshospitale en klinieke

Post boxes to bemoved from rubbleTAMSYN JANTJIES

The postal service in Firgrove, situatedamidst a building that is being demol-ished, will be moved.

The post boxes are currently on privateland in front of a building that used to accom-modateasupermarket.Thebuildingadjacentto this housed a liquor shop and apartmentson its first floor.

Martie Gilchrist, spokesperson for theSouth African Postal Services says the postalservices will be accommodated at the ShellGarage on the R102.

MornèDreyer, co-ownerof thepropertybe-says the buildings are being demolished tomake way for a new development.

Residents recently voiced their unhappi-nessaboutstruggling toaccess theirpostbox-

es among the rubble.“No-one cares about what happens here,

and in what state the postal service is,” saysHelenSylvester,aresidentofFirgrove for thepast 38 years. Sylvester says sewage had alsorecentlyfloodedthearea, leavinganunbeara-ble stench.

Another resident said his wife no longercollects their mail as the area is deserted andunsafe.

According to Dreyer he informed the postoffice of the planned demolition about threeyears ago when they started negotiations forthe new development.

However, Gilchrist says no notification ofthe demolition has been received.

According to Gilchrist a meeting was heldwith the management of the Shell service sta-tion, but a date for the relocation of the postalservices still needs to be confirmed.

Fed-up Firgrove resi-dents are relievedthat the post boxesthat have been stand-ing among buildingrubble, will bemoved.PHOTO: TAM-SYN JANTJIES
