It is aimed at promoting effective access to services and government programmes for all South Africans, especially the poorest and most vulnerable members of society, said James Rhoda, head of the Community Development section of the Drakenstein Municipality. He said the CDW's will provide an important link between the different spheres of government and local communities. "To coin a phrase: A commitment to making this project work is ultimately a commitment to 'building a better life for all'." The learnership programme was launched earlier this month by Marius Fransman, Minister of Local Government and Housing in the Western Cape. At the launch he reflected on a "new cadre of workers who will bring governance to the people, eradicate poverty and improve service delivery". This new project is now being rolled out in the Drakenstein municipal area. The CDW learners started their process of orientation with the municipality on 14 February and will soon be deployed in various communities. There they will apply some of the skills they have already learnt, collate research information, as well as assist communities. Rhoda said he welcomes any information, assistance and advice that will help the CDW learners in making a success of the programme, as well as improving service delivery. He can be contacted on 807-4500. |

Danksy 'n ruim skenking van meer as R886 000 van die Nasionale Lotteryfonds sal die Wellington Vereniging vir Bejaardes vanjaar talle projekte kan aanpak om hul diens aan hul lede en die gemeenskap uit te brei. Volgens Lena Kroneberg, bestuurder van die Vereniging en die Gemoedsrus Dienssentrum, is hierdie skenking uiters welkom omdat dit "soms maar meet en pas gaan" om planne te kan laat realiseer. Die skenking gaan onder meer aangewend word vir die inrig van ses woonstelle vir bejaarde egpare agter die Abbeyfield Tehuis, asook die indiensneming en toerus van twaalf tuisteversorgers vir 'n jaar, wat 'n versorgingsdiens aan verswakte pasiënte in hul eie wonings kan bied. Dit is reeds die derde keer dat die Wellington Vereniging vir Bejaardes baat uit die Lotto. Fondse vir die maandelikse bedryf van sy dienste word ook ingesamel deur die lede self, wat onder meer betrokke is by die jaarlikse debutantebal en Valentynsdagvieringe. Hul bedrywighede word ook moontlik gemaak deur donasies, asook subsidies van die provinsiale Departement van Welsyn, die Drakenstein Munisipaliteit, die Distriksmunisipaliteit en FNB Fonds. "Danksy ons donateurs kon ons oor die jare regkry wat ons reggekry het," vertel 'n dankbare mev Kroneberg. Gemoedsrus, wat in die statige Wellington Gemeenskapsentrum oorkant die Wellington Verkeersdepartement gehuisves word, bied reeds die afgelope 24 jaar heelwat aktiwiteite en dienste aan sy meer as 60 senior lede. Uitstappies Dit sluit in gereelde uitstappies, 'n jaarlikse toer, gesellighede, speletjiesoggende, handwerk en sportoefeninge. Daar is 'n bloeddruk- en suikertoetsdiens, terwyl daar ook vir lede se voorkoms gesorg word deur 'n voetesorgdiens en 'n gereelde haarkapper. Lede kom elke Dinsdag, Woensdag en Donderdag om 09:00 byeen by die Wellington Gemeenskapsentrum, en die maandelikse ledegeld is R3.
