Healthcare mustuphold dignityMental Health Awareness Month is

celebratedannually inOctober.Thisyear Cape Mental Health will be raisingawareness around the theme of “Dignityin mental health”.One in four people in all communities

have a mental health condition, and onein every four people has, at some pointin their lives, experienced a loss of digni-ty because of their mental health condi-tion, says Cape Mental Health directorIngrid Daniels.“Few people understand the true

meaning of dignity, and even fewer real-ise the extraordinary impact it has onour lives and relationships. The socialexclusion, lack of resources, inequality,discrimination and stigma faced bymany people with amental illness inhib-its the restoration of their dignity,” shesays.Cape Mental Health is aiming to re-

store the dignity of patients and to ad-dress external factors that erode theirdignity by offering comprehensive, pro-active and enabling mental health servi-ces in the province.Despite the existence of legislation,

there are still crucial issues that need to

be addressed and rectified to ensure thedignity of mental health care patients,Daniels says.These include easy and reliable access

to the correct medication, access to com-munity-based rehabilitation centres, theallocation of sufficient beds and resour-ces to psychiatric and other health carefacilities, ensuringmedical staff haveba-sic training in and understanding ofmental health and ensuring patient par-ticipation in treatment plans and policyimplementation.“Although South Africa has legisla-

tion in place to ensure the protection ofthe rights of people with psychiatric andintellectual disabilities, it is our ongoingresponsibility to ensure that this legisla-tion is implemented so that all South Af-ricans are treated with dignity and re-spect,” she says.Michael Hattingh, a member of Cape

Mental Health’s psychosocial rehabilita-tion programme, called Fountain House,says: “We should always remember thatin order to restore dignity, all people liv-ing with a mental illness have a voiceand should be heard. I am not defined bymy mental illness.”

On Saturday the Two Oceans Aquarium inthe V&A Waterfront will be celebrating Af-rican Penguin Awareness Day.The endangeredAfrican penguin is found

only along the Southern African coastline.A number of activities will take place at

the Aquarium on the day to celebrate.A mini Penguin Waterfront Waddle will

kick things off. This year, the 2.5km routewill amble through theWaterfront, startingand finishing at the Aquarium. All partici-pants are encouraged to wear black andwhite in support of the penguins and to jointhe festivities from 08:30 for complimentarybeverages. The waddle will start at 09:00.Waddlers are also encouraged to bring theirown water, as bottled water is not encour-aged.Samantha, the Aquarium’s penguin mas-

cot, will make an appearance and membersof the Aquarium will have the opportunityto see the movie City slickers – A tale of twoAfrican penguins.TheAfrican penguin is endemic to South-

ern Africa and the only penguin speciesfound on the continent. They are only foundfrom the Namibian coast in the west, to Al-

goa Bay in the east. These charismatic,flightless birds are classified as endan-gered.It is estimated that, at the turn of the cen-

tury, the African penguin population num-bered approximately 1.5m.

These enigmatic birds face extinction inthe wild as their numbers continue to de-cline dramatically, with just over 18 000breeding pairs left in South Africa.Loss of food source due to overfishing, cli-

mate change and habitat destruction arejust some of the factors taking their toll.African penguins feed mainly on small,

shoaling fish like pilchards and anchovies.This puts them in direct competition withhumans. Studies have found that Africanpenguins have to travel further and furtheraway from their colonies in search of food.This is detrimental to penguin chicks asthey rely on their parents for food and pro-tection. The adult penguins are also suffer-ing, as they have to consume enough fishto sustain them as well as their chicks.V For more information about the celebrations of Afri-can Penguin Day at the Two Oceans Aquarium visitwww.aquarium.co.za.

Motorists must take responsibility by them-selves for renewing their car licence discs,because they will not be notified by the na-tional department of transport when theirannual car licence is up for renewal.A computer system change at the depart-

ment is affecting motorists whose licencediscs expired at the end of September and arerenewableby 21October.Thesemotorists arenot receiving notices to renew their annualcar licences.Neither will those motorists whose licence

Buses arrowdown smallsuburb roadsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Buses, allegedly driving dangerously, haveMuizenberg residents calling for more trafficenforcement.The Muizenberg Ratepayers’ Association

has reported Golden Arrow buses deviatingoff their routes onto small residential roads,such as Clevedon Road, to avoid traffic con-gestion on Albertyn Road in the evenings.Residents say buses careen down narrow

residential roads at high speed, in the middleof the street. They also reportedly make un-scheduled stops in the middle of AlbertynRoad, causing cars to overtake in the face ofoncoming traffic.Residents say little or no enforcement ap-

pears to be taking place to prevent this.But the City of Cape Town has not received

any complaints, says JP Smith, mayoral com-mittee member for safety and security.“Thebusesarenotpermitted todeviate onto

the smaller residential roads in this area.Golden Arrow Bus Services has been noti-fied,” he says.However, “due to limited resources, the

City is unable to station traffic officers in thisarea permanently”, Smith says.GoldenArrowspokespersonBronwenDyke

says they have been made aware of concernsabout the use of Clevedon Road.“It is not an officially sanctioned route. We

immediately liaised with the complainantand the ward councillor, sent out a notice todrivers and had an inspector out to assess thesituation. We sincerely apologise.”V Concerns can be logged on 0800 65 64 63 or [email protected].

MASIPHUMELELE

Extra road to home, jobNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Additional road access toMasiphumele-le is expected to open by the middle of

next year.Houmoed Avenue is being extended in

a R19m project to link Kommetjie Road tothe cul de sac in Masiphumelele, explainsBrett Herron, mayoral committee mem-ber for transport.“Masiphumelele currently has only one

access point at Pokela Road. The addition-al access is required not only for residentsand visitors to Masiphumelele, but alsofor emergency services vehicles andmaintenance teams,” he says.

As well as improving access, the con-struction will provide much-needed jobs,Masiphumelele Business DevelopmentForum chairperson Simon Paisya says.“The construction will employ commu-

nity members and will provide access toemployment in the area, such as the newmall,” he says.Community worker Marti Weddepohl

says the current roads intoMasiphumele-le are very busy and carry a large amountof pedestrian traffic. This makes it a chal-lenge for cars to access the area.She believes a second access point from

the other side of Masiphumelele willspeedup response times of emergency ser-vices, especially in case of fires.

The effects will also be felt by motoristson Kommetjie Road, Herron says.“Apart from an additional access route

to Masiphumelele, the project will alsosignificantly improve the safety of the in-tersection at Kommetjie Road.”An upgrade of Kommetjie Road is set to

start in the middle of next year (“Roadsupgraded for more traffic”, People’s Post,1 September).There is currently severe congestion

along Kommetjie Main Road and OuKaapse Weg during peak periods, addedto which are planned residential develop-ments along Kommetjie Main Road andexpansions to the Long Beach businessarea.

“We will continue to add new exhibits allthe time. Next year we will be opening thedoors of a dedicated ‘shark central’ roomfull of amazing shark information andthings to see and do,” she says.The education centre fulfils a unique pur-

pose, Yeld-Hutchings believes.“In South Africa there are huge inequali-

ties and gaps across schools, and the Centreis fortunate to occupy a unique positionboth physically, in being able to really im-merse children in experientially focused ed-ucational activities, and financially, in be-ing able to accommodate those children andschools that are extremely disadvantaged,”she says.“There is also a lack of understanding

across society as a whole about how impor-tant healthy oceans are to life on earth, how

incredible the oceans and coasts of SouthAfrica (and the world) are, and what rolethey play in our lives. Connecting peoplewith the environment, and fostering a carefor our oceans, is the first step in ensuringthat we will conserve them.”Yeld-Hutchings hopes that through the

education programme, groups of childrenare inspired to care about oceans.“We hope that the public will feel the

same: that they have an interesting visit,learn something new, have fun, and leavefeeling inspired to care about the oceans. Inaddition to schools and the public comingthrough, there are outreach events (wherethe educators go to schools themselves),there are holiday clubs, marine awarenesscamps, marine explorers clubs and manyother events. The goal is to ensure that the

Save Our Seas Shark Education Centre be-comes a Cape Town site not to be missed,and that our marine education and conser-vation messages are spread far and wide.”V Visit saveourseas.com/centre/sosf-shark-educa-tion-centre/ for more information.

The upgraded Shark Education Centre has opened in Kalk Bay.

Some of the new highlights of the SharkEducation Centre in Kalk Bay are muralswhich make visitors feel as if they areunderwater and include 3D, touch parts.

FISH HOEK

Help curb invadersThe City of Cape Town’s invasive species

unit is calling on residents to reportsightings of the internationally notoriousAustralian bluebell creeper, which can beidentified by its delicate blue, bell-shapedflowers.

This invasive creeper is one of the speciesthat will be discussed at a series of publicforums during Invasive Species Week. Itsrapid spread is causing concern among con-servationists because the smothering anddisplacement of indigenous vegetationcould result in ecological damage.

The City’s green jobs unit (which in-cludes the invasive species unit) is launch-ing a public campaign to locate knownplants. The national invasive species listcomprises 559 invasive species in four cate-gories.

Invasive species public forum meetingsThe first meeting of the series will be held

in Fish Hoek at the Fish Hoek CommunityHall today from 10:30 to 12:30. The other are-as will be announced later.

The topics for discussion include a land-owner’s duty, how to deal with the four cate-gories of invasive species, the relationshipbetween fire and invasive plants, how theCity of Cape Town’s invasive species man-agement plan affects landowners and theCity’s invasive species management pro-

gramme in the far south.

Invasive Australian bluebell creeperThe invasive Australian bluebell creeper

(Billardiera heterophylla) is a climbingplant or shrub with branches that twinearound the stems of other plants.

The foliage of the bluebell creeper smoth-ers native vegetation. The plant is toxic andcan cause skin irritations and nausea.

In South Africa, landowners must con-trol, remove and destroy the plant (and anyseed) on their property.

The bluebell creeper can be identified byits dark, hairless green leaves about 50 mmin length. The upper surface of the leavesis distinctly glossy, with the under surfacebeing lighter in colour with a prominentmid-vein. The bell-shaped flowers are 10mmlong and blue-mauve (sometimes pink orwhite) in colour, with five petals occurringin drooping clusters of between one to fiveflowers at the tips of the branches. Flowersare usually seen from September to April.The cylindrical fruits (seed pods) are 20mmlong and are initially green in colour, turn-ing purple-black when ripe.V The City calls on members of the public to assistby never disposing of the bluebell creeper as part ofwaste, taking a picture and reporting sightings to [email protected] and learning moreabout the plant on www.capetowninvasives.org.za.

SIMON’S TOWN

Dogs are penguins’‘worst enemy’Following the recent discovery of another

22 African penguins killed just north ofSeaforthBeachnearSimon’sTown, theCityof Cape Town will be upping its penguinprotection between Seaforth Beach andFranks Bay.Since the beginning of the year, 42 endan-

gered African penguins have been killed bydogs.This is a substantial loss to the penguin

breeding population in Simon’s Town andthe situation cannot be allowed to continue,says Johan van der Merwe, mayoral com-mittee member for energy, environmentaland spatial planning.“The City is continually trying to find an

appropriate balance between protecting theAfrican penguin,while at the same time notover-regulatinghuman recreation in the ar-ea. To curb further penguin incidents, twoadditional full-time penguin monitors willbe employed to boost the capacity of the fourmonitors who are already working in thearea. The funding for these monitors hasbeen provided by Shark Explorers and theSimon’s Town Boat Company,” he says.Thepenguinmonitorswill patrol the area

from sunrise to sunset on a full-time basisfromNovember to the end of January. Visi-tors are advised to heed their requests andinstructions.Burghers’ Walk will be reopened to dogs

but leashes are mandatory. Ongoing non-compliance with this requirement will re-sult in the permanent closure of Burghers’Walk to all dogs.The sandareaofWindmillBeach remains

a free-runningbeach for dogs.However, dogowners must ensure that their dogs are un-der control at all times and that they do notapproach or harass penguins. Repeatednon-compliance can result in an end to thefree-running status.Camera traps will be installed in the en-

tire area to monitor attacks on penguins.TheAfricanpenguin is currently listed as

endangered, with a steady decline in num-bers over the past decade. The overall popu-lation of the species is estimated to be amere 2.5% of its population level someeighty years ago.V Members of the public who observe unaccompanieddogs in the Burghers’ Walk area are urged to reportthis to City law enforcement on 021 596 1999.

Police take thousands of litres of alcoholMore than 2000F alcohol has been confis-cated during a police bust in Masiphu-melele.In an effort to clamp down on the ille-

gal trade in liquor, theOceanViewpoliceand metro police undertook a joint oper-ation last week, says Wynberg policingcluster spokesperson Captain Angie

Latchman. They confiscated 2450F alco-hol and arrested one suspect for sellingalcohol without a licence.“The Ocean View police are taking a

strong stance against the illegal tradingof liquor, as this is one of the main con-tributing factors towards crime in the ar-ea,” Latchman says.

Singer has manytalents, plansLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

She’s a singer, a writer, an artist, anentrepreneur and a mother.Retreat’s Lydia Lategan is awoman

of many talents. She’ll be showcasinga few of them when she releases thefirst three tracks off her upcoming al-bum with a concert at Upper HallChurch, in Sonata Street, Steenbergon Sunday 1 November.While she plans to officially launch

she says.

Personal songsLydia describes her music as “very

inspiring”. A mixture of country andgospel, the upcoming album tells thestory of her own personal journey ofrestoration through religion.Lydia says the album, produced by

Damian Roman, will be encourage-ment for people from all walks of life.It was love that motivated Lydia to

begin writing. She started with a sto-ry about a childhood love, the samelove that inspired 70 poems in threedays later in her life. One of these,“Down memory lane”, was publishedin a poetry anthology.As with her poetry, Lydia’s songs come

straight from the heart, telling stories thatcover the full spectrum of human emotions;from lost love to hope and unexpected luck.She is constantly writing, sometimes

working on three songs at a time, but whenshe isn’t making music, Lydia is also apainter. Some of her work will be exhibitedbefore her performance at the Upper HallChurch.

PlansThe busymother of two – nowadult – chil-

dren also runs signwriting, catering and in-terior decorating businesses.“If the one is quiet, I go on to the next

one.”She is also planning a gospel concert ti-

tled Old time religion in which she’ll bring

various artists together to perform “songsyou don’t hear anymore”.Lydia is looking for reliable and profes-

sional gospel musicians with their own in-struments for her future shows at CDlaunches and will be hosting auditions onSaturday 28 November. Interested musi-cians can send her a WhatsApp on082 6242 871 or call 074 742 4131 for more in-formation.She will be joined on Sunday 1 November

Guests are asked to pre-book ticketsfor catering purposes. For bookings, more informationor to book Lydia for a performance, contact her on074 742 4131 or [email protected].

Direct claimant EdwinaMakgamatha is a survivor of ahit-and-run accident that nearlyclaimed her life and left herpartner seriously injured. To thisday, the driver who caused thehorrific accident five years ago onthe notorious Mabopane Highwayoutside Pretoria, resulting inthe car rolling several times, isunknown.

Edwina heeded RAF’s call to approachthe Fund directly, thus ensuring theirclaim was handled quicker and that theyreceived their full settlement, withouthaving to pay any legal fees. Thanks tothe RAF’s compassionate and professionalhandling of their case, they receivedfull compensation and were granted anundertaking certificate to cater for theirfuture health needs and requirements.

For her physical needs, the RAF ensuredthat Edwina received all mobility disabilitydevices she required such as a wheelchair,a bath bench and pressure mattresses.Furthermore, her home was modified tomake it more accessible for wheelchairuse, while hand controls were installed inEdwina’s car, allowing her to regain herindependence once again.

The 30-year-old mother of two underwenta long and gruelling rehabilitation. Not onlydid she have to deal with accepting herphysical injuries but also with the massive

psychological and emotional traumawhen she realised that she would neverwalk again. However, Edwina credits herrecovery to the enormous psychologicaland emotional support the RAF caregiversprovide.

Today, Edwina has victoriously turnedher pain into a new mission in life – sheis making a difference in the lives ofmany left paralysed by road crashes,especially those living in townships whereservices for the disabled remain poor.Her company, Thusanang (meaning ‘tohelp one another’), has forged close tieswith numerous manufacturers of mobilitydisability products and along with herspecially trained caregivers, refers themfor home and car modifications. She doesmotivational talks, visits rehab centres,supplies medical consumables, and is evenestablishing a driving school for disabledpeople!

“The RAF has not only given me supportduring a hectic period but has alsoassisted me to establish my business,” shesaid. “When I was young, I wanted to bea nurse, and I feel what I’m doing nowis the closest thing to achieving mydream.”

Edwina can be contacted on011 – 453 0480.

For more details about RAF’s services, contact the Call Centre on0860 23 55 23, from Monday to Friday between 07h45 and 16h00.

From the beginning of this month the buri-al hours at Maitland, Welmoed and Khaye-litsha cemeteries have been extended onSaturdays and Sundays.This is being done for a trial period of six

months.The purpose of the extension is to accom-

modate more burials over the weekend, toprovide amore dignified service in the bus-iest cemeteries and to avoid congestion be-tween noon and 14:00.The extended hours will be on Saturdays

from 08:00 to 16:00 and on Sundays fromnoon to 15:00.Belinda Walker, mayoral committee

member for community services and spe-cial projects, says about 1000 burials amonth take place in Cape Town cemeteries.Saturday is the much preferred day for

funerals at the City’s cemeteries.“We want our cemeteries to be quiet and

dignified spaces where people can congre-gate to bury and mourn their loved ones.But with so many funerals taking place onthe same day, this is no easy task. I believethat the extension of the burial bookinghours on Saturdays at our three largestcemeteries will go a long way towards ad-dressing this challenge,” says Walker.Sunday morning burials for specific de-

nominations will still apply.

More time for burialsover weekends
