Beautify Melkbosstrand

We are doing maintenance at FIRESTATION & SAPS 🌱

PLEASE let us know whether you could sponsor a laborer at R350.
We will be working for two days (R1400). Call Delia 084 592 9562. Help us make Melkbos beautiful. 🙏

So sad to see the litter, junk and human waste in our garden that we have so nicely tried to maintain.

It is obvious that this is a place that the local drunks come and misbehave.

Some irrigation has also been broken.

When will this parking lot be managed properly. Where is Law Enforcement?
