One year for Kwatsaduza grannies gym

The Kwatsaduza grannies gym celebrated its first anniversary at 1223 Sikelela Street, Bluegum View, Duduza on Tuesday.

Project co-ordinator, Clement Khumalo says the aim of the celebration is to promote health and wellness to the elderly and people with disabilities.

Khumalo explains the beneficiaries of the gym planned and organised the event at their own expenses.

He adds the gym has grown to 43 people which makes it difficult for it to operate.

According to Khumalo, appropriate structures to cater for the elderly and people with disability’s will help the wellbeing of the organisation and the community at large.

In his conclusion Khumalo says the gym operates from Monday to Friday at no cost from 6.30am to 10am.

Anyone interested in registering with them can call him on 073 207 7688.

Social worker, Sonto Thobela says it is important for people to participate in physical activity to alleviate chronic diseases.

“Within the project I learned to work with my colleagues, share vital ideas and be responsible for my life”, says one of the members, Gladys Mzima.
