BRONWYN TANNER: Tuning In – Locals thanked for cleaning up town

Community news and events for the mid-South Coast.

It’s the first week of August and four months to December/Christmas/New Year. It’s such a sobering thought. Happy Women’s Month.

Two kind gents, Rajen Moodley and Mason Maharaj took it upon themselves to clear up in Crompton Road, Umkomaas. The community extended so much gratitude via the community chat groups.

Mason Maharaj does his share for the Umkomaas community.

A request from Elder’s Voice in Pennington: If any kind person can help with the loan of a kombi to fetch and carry old folks to the hospital, doctors and pension collection pint as their kombi was hit by a drunk driver and it will cost R48 000 to repair, and of course no insurance coming forth. Please contact Joanne Herbst on 079 0286379.

A request has been received for items for Christmas shoeboxes which go to Alex Park, Amcup, together with some pensioners and needy children. Contact Rix Windell on
