Transport
“Many people have phoned to say that they are arranging water drives at schools, nursery schools and businesses, and once they have collected all the water, we will arrange with them to go and collect the water and bring it back to our warehouse to be sent on to Cape Town,” said René Simpson of InterTown Transport.
Please contact Rika on 082 684 5833, René on 011 974 0891 or 064 759 2518, Moynene on 011 865 1484 or Baden/Michelle Berry on 010 593 0551, who will arrange to transport all water to Cape Town for free.
