Stuck in the mud for center residents
They got stuck in the mud at Epilepsy SA’s Free State/Northwest branch on Wednesday. All for a day of fun for residents and visitors to the center. Each year Epilepsy SA’s local branch host fourth year social work students from the North West University’s Potchefstroom Campus. Once they started, the students, Patsy Losper, Zella Stander and Estelle de Man, identified social isolation, loneliness and lack of insight by the community of Parys and Tumahole in the actual work the centre do. They wanted to address the issue and came up with a plan to involve the youth in the center through an initiative they call Buddy Time.
