PHILIPPI
Police ‘refuse to help’SAMANTHA LEE
@Samantha_Lee121
Social media was abuzz as a video clipof Philippi police officers allegedly re-fusing to open a case of hijacking went
viral last week.As it stands the video has been viewed
more than 46 000 times and has 2 300 shares.In the video a group of men can be heard
trying to open a case of hijacking and armedrobbery at the Philippi police station.
It is understood that the four men hadbeen driving in Govan Mbeki Drive nearHanover Park when the car’s cambeltsnapped, forcing them topull over to the sideof the road.
This was confirmed to People’s Post by theowner of the car, Monray Booysen.
“We were coming from a pool tournamentand I was on my way to drop someone inMitchell’s Plain. We were on our way on theback road from Lansdowne when the cam-belt snapped. The car then died on the sideof the road. We saw six men approaching uswho asked if they could help us. The next
thing we knew one pulled out a gun andpointed it at us,” the Bridgetown residentsays.
The men then threatened them and stolepool cues, cash and other valuables beforetrying to start the car and drive away.
Because the cambelt had snapped theywereunable to start the car and left the sceneon foot.
Booysen says themen fired shots and triedto stab him, but missed.
“We were not far from the police stationbut called friends to come and help us,” hesays.
His brother had gotten out of bed to cometo their aid.
In the video the group can be heard askingthe officers how to go about opening a case.
“Who [shot at] you,” the officer asks them.“Can I tell you what happened?” Booysen
asks in the video.The officer then requests them not to all
speak at once before asking who robbedthem.
“How must I know?” Booysen responds.The officer asks them what time the inci-
dent happened to which Booysen replies“after 1”.
The officer can be heard saying : “and youare still on the road? That is your problem.”
“We get shot at, robbed, they take all ourstuff and all the stuff in the car and you aresaying it’ s not yourproblem?” the complain-ant asks.
The incident happened shortly after 01:00on Sunday 15 March.
The video was loaded onto Facebook onFriday 20 March.
Later in the video, the shift commandertells the men to come back the next day.
“I urge you to come back tomorrow... whatyou are alleging could be the truth but weurge you to come back tomorrow when youare sober,” the Captain says to them.
The men can be heard arguing that theywere not drunk and telling the officers thatthey “smell like wine”.
Booysen told People’s Post they were notdrunk. “Wewerenot drinking andmybroth-er – who the Captain was referring to – doesnot drink at all. He got out of bed to comeand help us,” he says.
Booysen added the two officers had beensleeping when the men arrived.
He then left the police station and re-turned the next day to open the case.
“We added the grievance against these of-ficers and made an official statement whenwe went back the next day,” he says.
Booysen reiterated he had not been drink-ing that night and that hewasdropping teammembers after a semi-pro pool game.
He also confirmed to People’s Post that themen had damaged his valves when attempt-ing to escape in his car.
All the stolen pool cues have since beenreturned.
“Themen sold the cues to someone andwewere able to get them back,” Booysen says.
Despite attempts and due to technical dif-ficulty, People’s Post could not obtain addi-tional comment from the Philippi Police Sta-tion at the time of going to print.People’s Post will endeavour to publish a
formal response from the police should it bereceived.VStarting with the word “Post”, SMS your views to32516. SMSes cost R1.

CITY RENTAL UNITS
Policy controls home fixesMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Non-payment, limited resources, lack offunding and high levels of theft andvandalism are the main issues
plaguing City of Cape Town rental units.The maintenance of these units across
Cape Town is often a bone of contention inmany communities but a new policy aims toaddress this by prioritising repair work.
Last week, the City released its draft com-munity residential unit maintenance policyfor public comment.
According to the policy there are a rangeof issues affecting City rental units.
The Citymaintains 45 000 rental units and11 000 hostel beds.
ChallengesBenedicta van Minnen, mayoral committeemember for human settlements, says majormaintenance and upgrading is required dueto the age of rental units.
“Therefore there is generally not muchfunding left over for both operational (day-to-day) and capital (major upgrading) main-tenance work.”
VanMinnenexplains thehigh level of non-payment of rent by tenants also impactsfunding. The high incidence of vandalism,theft and abuse of municipal services infra-structure in these units is also a challenge.
She further explains gangsterism, vio-lence and associated illegal activities con-tribute to a dangerous and stressfulworkingenvironment for personnel. Mental andphysical health deterioration among staff isalso a challenge faced by the department.
MaintenanceResponding to questions about staff alloca-tions and the inspection of rental units, VanMinnen explains the public housingmainte-nance staff cannot conduct door-to-door sur-
veys, but do high-level block assessmentsonce a year when the budget request is com-piled.
“The City relies on residents to report anyissues so that they can be addressed, espe-cially in terms of health and safety matters.The City also uses expanded public worksprogramme workers to assist where possi-ble.”
She says non-payment by tenants directlyinfluences the budgets and maintenancework that can be performed and affects thesustainability of the rental units.
“In terms of the policy, defaulting tenantsor occupants will not be assisted with main-tenance apart from matters relating tohealth and safety.”
She says there are various levels ofdefaulting tenants but the municipalityoften requests they make arrangements ifthey cannot pay.
“In general, payment levels vary between40% to 42% across the city. It is importantto note that the collection rate in the alreadyupgraded units went up from 28% to 45%,”she adds.
FundingFor the 2014/2015 financial year, themunici-pality received a once-off lifetime renova-tion grant from national government whichallowed it to upgrade 7000 units at a cost ofR1.2bn.
Van Minnen explains those units may notaccess grant repair funding again and mustbe maintained by the City in the future.
“Therefore tenants must please pay theirrent to enable high levels of maintenance inthe future.”
On average, the municipality spendsR15m each year on day-to-day maintenancewhich addresses mainly health and safetyconcerns.
Van Minnen explains this maintenancedepends on what is allocated in the annual
budget. In the last financial year the depart-ment received R10.4m.
PolicyThe new draft policy categorises and priori-tises repairs to ensure that health and safetyrepairs are attended to first.
Van Minnen explains it also incentivisestenants to pay rent in order for the City todo maintenance.
The policy proposesmaintenance work bedivided into four categories which rangefrom “very high” priority to “low” priorityand according to levels.
For the first two levels, which are consid-
ered “very high” or “high” priority, mainte-nance includes emergency repairs in theevent of a disaster, anything which poses ahealth risk, structural damage to a unit andelectrical repairs.
For the two lower levels, namely “medi-um”and“low”priority,maintenance coverswindows, ceilings, internal doors and locksand toilet seat replacements.
The comment period on the new policycloses on Thursday 30 April.V To view the draft policy visit www.capetown.gov.za.It is also available at subcouncil offices and libraries.For more information contact Cassandra Gabriel on021 400 5212 or [email protected].

Locals aim to speed up land claimsNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
The District Six working committee has vol-unteered to bolster the land claims process.
The organisationmaintains it can completethe entire verification process, which cantake several years when carried out by the de-partment of rural development and land re-form, in just one year.
Completing claimsEach claim goes through a very rigorousprocess of research, explains Land ClaimsCommission chief director Michael Wors-nip.
Often claims are vague or incompleteand these first need to be completed beforethe commission can test if there was dis-possession according to the law.
“Thatmight not be a simplematter to de-cide, because the act allows for disposses-sion because of racial practice as well asracial legislation,” he explains.
All the potential beneficiaries might nothave been accounted for, Worsnip says.
“Sometimes people are deliberately andwrongfully excluded. Resolving family dis-putes is often one of the key delays in theresolution of a claim,” he says.
Then the commission tests the actual re-lationships, Worsnip explains.
“Often getting people to produce theiridentity documents is a major problem.Sometimes people are reluctant to producethem, because of this or that skeleton in thecloset,” he says.
“Often people disappear, in which casewe need to put adverts in the press to tryto contact them. Often there are disputesand sometimes there is fraud.”
Resolving all these matters can take agreat deal of time and effort, saysWorsnip.
“It is thus impossible to saywhat thenor-mal time for the verification and compli-ance process for a claim is. It could take anafternoon. It could take 19 years,” he says.
BacklogIn the previous land claims process, claimswere captured on paper which createdmany inaccuracies or discrepancies,Wors-nip says.
“Then there is the matter of capacity.The office manages to settle, working opti-mally and being far ahead of all the otheroffices in the country, around 250 claims ina year,” he says.
To date, 15 000 claims have been settled.
There are 1000 outstanding.“Wehave a fairly small staff and the settle-
ment process requires very intensive stake-holder engagement. There is a queue andsome claims are in the front of the queue andsome towards the back,” he says.
In community claims, the community rep-resentatives are usually in the form of atrust or a communal property association.These are always asked to assist with verifi-cation, Worsnip says. This is where the Dis-trict Sixworking committee hopes to step in.
VerificationWorking committee chairperson ShahiedAjam says the organisation has formally re-quested to be included in the process.
“At this rate, it will take 20 years to final-ise all the claims. Unresolved issues in othercommunity groups have held up the previ-ous process, and we want to avoid that,” he
says.The organisation is currently busy with a
verification process through a door-to-doorcampaign in Hanover Park and Mitchell’sPlain. Close to a thousand members havebeen verified this way, Ajam says.
However, verification is only one step ofthe land claims process, Worsnip says.
Once claims have been verified, a complexsettlement process is carried out.
A research report needs to be written upand approved. Claimants are then given op-tions on how they would like to be compen-sated.
“If they are eligible for, and choose devel-opment, then there is the long process ofidentifying a piece of land, if restoration isnot possible,” Worsnip explains.
“The process is necessarily a long one, be-cause the matters are complex and involvea lot of hurt and a lot of emotion,” he says.
The District Six working committee has requested to be part of the land claims verificationprocess, claiming they will speed up the process. PHOTO: NICOLE MCCAIN

HANOVER PARK
Garden destroyedby scared tenantsROWENA HENDRICKS
@roxyh28
Two pensioners of Mentz Court in Hano-ver Park are still in disbelief after theirprecious plant and tree garden was de-
molished in their absence by allegedly otherresidents living there.
The garden was not only used to beautifythe front of the block of flats, but the aloegrown here was also used for medicinal pur-poses by some of the residents.
According to Glynn Craven (67), whostarted the garden as a hobby almost 16years ago, says he had spent lots of time andmoney on beautifying the garden to benefitall in the court.
“But they destroyed everything in a wink.They chopped off all the plants and flowers,as well as the big trees. We had palm trees,medicinal aloe, and much more. They eventhrew acid on some of the plants.”
He says the alleged perpetrators claim itwas done on instruction by the HanoverPark Civic Association, because gangstersused these trees and the garden as a hidingplace.
“This is untrue,” says Craven.Ighsaan Nazier, deputy chairperson of the
Hanover Park Civic Association, stronglydenies this.
He says they were even looking at how toimprove this and other gardens in the areato grow vegetable gardens to try and allevi-ate poverty in the community.
Nazier says the civic association got wordof the incident about three weeks ago, whilethe residents were housed at the containervillage while their flats were being renovat-ed.
“The tears were streaming down the facesof these pensioners (also civic members)when they informed us about the garden.
“We live in a concrete jungle and the gar-den was a little piece of nature among thisall.”
Elizabeth James (aka Aunty Bettie, 68)who helped Craven in the garden, says sheis heartbroken that people would do this tonature. “As I was watering what’s left of thegarden this morning (last Wednesday), itstruck me with which anger they hacked thetrees.
“I’m saddened over the hard work, timeand money we’ve put in and what they’ve de-stroyed. The garden was our hobby, we lovegardening. It was our pride,” says a tearyAunty Bettie.
She says when people walked past the gar-den, they always admired the beauty of it all.
Nazier says the civic association membersare saddened at the destruction.
“People seem to join in without any ques-tions to destroy, but they never seem to wantto help build things up. It’s really sad.”
The pensioners hope to start rebuildingtheir garden as soon as the City of CapeTown has erected a promised fence aroundthe block of flats.
Councillor Benedicta van Minnen, theCity of Cape Town’s mayoral committeemember for human settlements, says an eye-witness report states the garden was dam-aged on 4 March by “fellow tenants in MentzCourt Block A who were worried that thegarden served as an ideal hideout for gang-sters during shootouts”.
She says the complaint was raisedthrough the ward councillor, investigatedand responded to already.
Elizabeth ‘Aunty Bettie’ James was in tears when she explained how the garden that she anda fellow pensioner and resident Glynn Craven were maintaining and growing at the Mentz Courtin Hanover Park, was demolished by other residents recently. PHOTO: ROWENA HENDRICKS
Prisoners in a fight against TBMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
Inmates at Pollsmoor Prison are makingstrides in the fight against tuberculosis (TB).
With an increase in the number of inmatesthe infamous prison is currently 199% over-crowded, creating the perfect opportunityfor TB to spread.
During a briefing held at the prison lastweek Ntobeko Mketsane, area commission-er for the department of correctional servi-ces, revealed shocking statistics.
In his presentation he explained therewere 8642 offenders. In the admission centre,which is built to house 1619 inmates, thereare currently 4254 inmates. He said thespread of TB was threatening the health ofinmates but also their families and commu-nities. For this reason, the prison has part-nered with the TB/HIV Care Association,the health department and the NationalHealth Laboratory Services (NHLS) to en-sure that all inmates entering the prison arescreened, diagnosed and treated quickly.
“Through this partnership we now have
six counsellors, two nurses, two enrollednurses, data capturers and a radiologist toassist us”.
TB/HIV Care Association chief executiveHarry Hausler explains patients are diag-nosed in two hours and can then be treatedsooner, hindering the spread of the disease.
For the period between March 2013 andFebruary this year, 68 152 inmates havebeen screened.
More than 700 patients have been treatedfor TB, of which 28 have been treated formulti-drug resistant TB.
Hausler says one TB patient can infect upto 20 others, meaning the early detection hasled to the prevention of over 14 000 possibleinfections.
According to Delekile Klaas, regionalcommissioner of the department of correc-tional services, there is a 86.6% cure rate inprison across the Western Cape. He explainsthe department is looking at ways to expandPollsmoor Prison’s successful programmeto other prisons in smaller towns.V What are your thoughts?

E-TEACHING
8 top schoolsget tech helpROWENA HENDRICKS
@roxyh28
Eight schools in the Cape Town areawere recently rewarded for theirmarks in the most recent matric
results. The schools received interactivewhiteboards as their prize.The eight schools included three that
were awarded for achieving the mostimproved matric results, namely NedDoman Secondary in Athlone, Manyanoand Hindle.Five schools were rewarded for being top
performers, namely Ravensmead, ElsiesRiver, Valhalla, Florida and Cravenby.Each school received an interactive white-board – a total investment in E-teaching ofR230 000.The donation was made possible by the
Airports Company South Africa (ACSA)through its “improving education throughinteractive technology” school upliftmentproject.The schools which improved theirmatric
pass rate to between 75% and 90% wereidentified by the education department.“The initiative acknowledges and
rewards schools that have increased theirmatric pass rate. These boards will allowteachers touse themasnormalwhiteboardswith the versatility of connecting to theinternet while teaching,” says DeborahFrancis, acting spokesperson of ACSA.“These boards will assist with teaching
and even more so, help them achieve aneven higher matric pass rate in future.”Gwynne Philander, principal of Ned
Doman Secondary, says the school is proudthat itsmatric pass rate increased from56%in 2012 to 70% in 2015.He says the reward of an interactive
whiteboard fits in perfectly with theschool’s digital plan to deliberately equipevery classroom with interactive technolo-gy by the end of April.“We are well on track with developing
technologically to aid in teaching, securityat the school and using technology whenteaching any subject,” says Philander.Husain Mollagee, ICT coordinator at Ned
Doman, says the school alsohas other smarttechnology, including smartboards,E-beams and cotton candy processor smarttechnology.“It’s an attempt to bridge the gap and
expose pupils to technology, as well as pro-vide first-world access through visual stim-ulation that saves teachers time. Pupils caninteract and it is convenient and effective,”says Mollagee.He says the interactive whiteboard is an
E-teaching tool as opposed to an E-learningtool. Teachers and pupils can write on theboard, make notes and print directly fromthe board.“The idea is to get our pupils interested
and excited about technology. They defi-nitely won’t be technologically disadvan-taged when they finish matric here,” saysMollagee.“The upliftment of the airport’s immedi-
ate surrounding communities is importantto us, because education is the foundationfor the development of any community,”says Francis.
Gwynne Philander, principal of Ned Doman Secondary, says he is happy that the school’smatric pass rate increased from 56% to 70% in the past three years. The school is one ofeight schools to be rewarded by ACSA for its top performance and/or most improved matricresults in the most recent matric exam. PHOTO: ROWENA HENDRICKS

been smooth, the clinic still faces somemajor challenges due to an influx in pa-tients.
Councillor Anthony Moses says thesechallenges include long queues, administra-tion problems with filing and appointments,rude staff, slow service, a lack of safety andsecurity and theft from cars in the parkinglot.
He says the biggest concern is the safetyof patients at the clinic. “We’ve had inci-dents of gang violence and cars have beenbroken into and batteries stolen.”
However, Sithembiso Magubane, spokes-person of district health services and pro-grammes at the provincial health depart-ment, says: “As with any functioning healthfacility, we have received a few complaintswhich vary in nature but this is normal atany public health facility.”
He says these complaints have been man-aged according to national core standardsand through the department’s complaintshotline. “The closure of the GF Jooste Hospi-tal and the influx of clients to the HeideveldEmergency Centre does not affect the ser-vice delivery at Heideveld Community DayCentre, as the emergency service and prima-ry health care services are two different andseparate amenities, which do not necessari-ly impact on each other.”
According to Magubane, services offeredat the Heideveld Emergency Centre includeemergency care for everyone in the Klipfon-tein subdistrict. “It attends to approximate-ly 1600 patients per month.”
Magubane says services previously deliv-
ered at GF Jooste have been temporarilyrelocated to Heideveld CDC for emergenciesand Mowbray Maternity Hospital andMitchell’s Plain Hospital for emergenciesand other health services until the new GFJooste Hospital is fully renovated and opera-tional again. “Not all patients are thusreferred to Heideveld.”People’s Post previously reported the on-
site work at GF Jooste, which will costR785 million, will begin this year or the nextand may be completed in 2018 or 2019.
Magubane says the emergency centre atHeideveld has a functional triage centre, aThuthuzela rape crisis centre and anupgraded pharmacy. “Heideveld CDC is aprimary health facility and would refer cli-ents to the next level of care (Mitchell’s PlainHospital, Groote Schuur Hospital or Mow-bray Maternity Hospital) for specialised ser-vices.
“It is a 24-hour facility and also has anovernight ward. The staff and equipmentwere transferred to Heideveld CDC.”
The following staff services are offered: 37medical practitioners, 10 medical special-ists, 12 nursing assistants, 13 professionalnurses, two physiotherapists and one phar-macist.
Moses concludes: “Although there aresome operational challenges, we are fortu-nate to have a clinic here in Heideveld. Wehave among others a disease centre, baby-care facility and trauma centre – a vastamount of services are available to the com-munity.”
The Heideveld Community Day Centre is still facing some major challenges, especially safety of patients at the clinic, according to Heideveldcouncillor Anthony Moses. PHOTO: ROWENA HENDRICKS

Volunteer now officer of the lawSAMANTHA LEE
@Samantha_Lee121
He cannowwrite tickets, issue fines andlegally make arrests while on patrolwith the Lanroe Neighbourhood
Watch.As part of a reservist project launched by
the City of Cape Town, HyltonMitchell is of-ficially a law enforcement auxillary officer.After an intensive eight-week pro-
gramme, Mitchell has full signing rights asan extension of the City’s law enforcementand traffic services divisions.Mitchell says he got involvedwith the pro-
gramme because of his role in the LanroeNeighbourhood Watch.“I signedup for the project as an extension
of my neighbourhood watch and civic asso-ciation community work. Also, I think it isimportant that we, as neighbourhood watchmembers, have more authority to addresscertain complaints,” he says.Some of these issues are vagrants, dump-
ing, noise complaints and traffic violations.He explains that the course included ex-
tensive training on South African law andwriting tickets to ensure they are binding.The first intake of officers underwent
training in the Criminal Procedure Act, hu-man rights and other components applica-ble to their duties, at the Metro Police Col-lege in Observatory after-hours and overweekends.“We were introduced to bylaw infringe-
ment and how to identify who victims andperpetrators are,” he says.Mitchell says the job is strictly voluntary
and that he signed up out of passion for hiscommunity.“I have always been a community person
and I am concerned about the area. I wantto improve the conditions and see residentscome together in an areawherewe can raisechildren and live,” he explains.
The programme was approved in October2012. JP Smith, mayoral committeememberfor safety and security, said in a statementin 2013 the programme was put together toboost operational capacity and secure morefeet on the ground without a massive bud-getary impact.“The volunteer auxiliary officers are be-
ing recruited from neighbourhood watchstructures across the city and will work aminimumof 16 hours amonth,without com-pensation. They will be deployed under su-pervision of experienced law enforcementofficers in accordance with the City’s needs,butwill also patrol their owncommunities,”Smith said at the time.Mitchell confirms that the classwas tough
and that many other students had fallen outalong the way.Those who completed the programme re-
ceived a City staff number – allowing themto write tickets – and a reflector vest.“Theofficerswill alsobe trained in theuse
of firearms and, when declared competent,
will be entitled to carry official firearmswhile on duty.”Mitchell says the firearm section has not
been completed yet.In 2013 the first 16 officers signed their vol-
unteer agreements and received their ap-pointment certificates. Several other classeshave also graduated since and have startedwith active patrols.“We hope to grow our volunteer law en-
forcement component to 400 in the next twoyears to augment our policing efforts acrossthe metropole, benefiting all of Cape Town’sresidents,” Smith said.Mitchell’s passion to see change has since
been directed throughhis communitywork.“I got involved with the Civic Association
of Rondebosch East and the Lanroe Neigh-bourhood Watch as a way to get my viewsand ideas across,” he says.He urges more neighbourhood watch
members to sign up for the project andmoreactively contribute to crime fighting in theirareas.

Local pair to dance in ItalyROWENA HENDRICKS
@roxyh28
A young ballroom dancing pair fromAthlone who was selected to representSouthAfrica, will hopefully be gracing
the dance floor at the Youth BallroomWorldChampionships in Italy in July.
Gabrielle Arendse (14) and Harun Maart(15), from Bridgetown and Silvertown re-spectively, will compete against other danc-ers from more than 60 countries.According to Mavis Jacobs, dance in-
structor at the Afton School of Dance inWynberg who coaches the young couple,they will be dancing five different ballroomdances – each with its “own fundamentalcharacteristics”.The pair, who grew up together and have
been dancing together for the past nineyears, normally practices three times aweek, but have now increased their practicetime in preparation for the youth champion-ships.“They have a warm partnership, great at-
titude and approach to ballroom dancingand they support and respect each other.They will do great,” says Jacobs.She says the partners need to prepare
mentally to believe in themselves.Nutrition, exercise and fitness are impor-
tant for dancers as it gives them enduranceduring the multiple rounds they have todance.However, the couple still needs R15 000
each to cover expenses for the overseas trip.“They will be going for five days and need
to cover expenses such as their flights andaccommodation for two days,” says Jacobs.Sally Williams, Harun’s mother, says she
is confident they will raise the needed mon-ey in time. “They (Gabrielle and Harun) gelwell together so perfectly. It’s amazing howwell they connect as dance partners. We areextremely proud and know theywill dowell,because they are excelling in ballroom,” shesays.Williams says the kids’ passports are
ready for collection and they can now apply
for their visas.Various fundraising events are planned,
including a karaoke, hat party and car rally.“We would like the community to support
this young, talented couple to help maketheir dream come true,” says Jacobs.Elzine, Gabrielle’s mother, says she is
very excited and proud of the young dancecouple.“I ammost probably their biggest fan. I am
extremely proud of what they have achievedthus far and what they will achieve in fu-ture. Ballroom dancing is such a beautifulsport.”

COMEDY
He brings the jokes to usLOUISA STEYL
@LouNotes
“There’s just been a lack of comedygigs on the Cape Flats, but that’swhere most of the laughter comes
from.”That’s why Mitchell’s Plain comedian,
dancer and actor Ambrose Uren decided tostart the Cape Flats Comedy Jam.“I wanted to not just be part of the comedy
scene as a comic, but as an organiser aswell,” Ambrose explains.When he realised the platform of the
Joseph Stone Auditorium was available, hedecided to try and put an event together.Ambrose points out that there hasn’t real-
ly been a focus on comedy at the JosephStone and the venue offered him a chanceto put comedy in a new venue and give somecomics the opportunity to perform in a thea-tre environment.The Cape Flats Comedy Jam VOL 1 was
held in May last year and since then, the Jo-seph Stone has played host to names likesCalvin Benson, Yaaseen Barnes, Carl We-ber, Dalin Oliver and Crescendo Louw.
Young line-upVolume three of the Comedy Jamwill take
place on Friday with Angel Campey, Kagiso“KG” Mokgadi, Nkosinathi Maki, Gino Fer-nandez, Phil de Lange, Nelson de Gouveia,Ryan Carelse, Peter Sserwanga, Will Spog-ter and Christopher Houlie. Ambrose him-self will host.Ambrose is particularly excited about 18-
year-old Christopher’s inclusion in the line-up, pointing out that he’s been involved incomedy for two years already.“I wish I started so young, he’s amazing.”
Ambrose’s own start in the industry cameafter watching the late Rustum August whohelped him organise his first gig at Ragazziin Long Street.“I’ve always wanted to do comedy,” Am-
brose says. From there, Gino Fernandezstarted booking him regularly and before heknew it he was performing at the finals of
the Good Hope FM Laugh Master Competi-tion“I’ve never had any problems making a
joke about something. For me, life is fun,”he says. Ambrose likes seeing people happyand being a comic has put him in a positionwhere he can provide the laughs.With a bit of a crazy imagination, he says
he can be a little silly at times, but Ambroselikes telling stories and challenging people’sthoughts through comedy.
Clowning aroundWhen he isn’t organising the Comedy
Jams, he’s also involved with Class Clowns,a comedy group he startedwith LungaTshu-ka, who started out around the same time ashim. The Class Clowns performs at the Jo-seph Stone Auditorium on Thursdays. Thisweek they’ll be joined by Justin Ray, Ken-wyn Davids and Calvin Benson.Ambrose plans to organise another two
comedy jams in August and December thisyear, but the real mission behind the CapeFlats Comedy Jam is to establish a comedyfollowing in the area.Ambrose dreams of starting a Cape Flats
comedy festival onedaywhere localswill getto experience “a whole week of back to backcomedy”.
Television nextHe’s also busyworking towards a one-man
show, but he doesn’t want to rush the pro-cess. “I would like to put out something thatpeople find memorable.”Then there’s also the television scripts
he’s working on.Ambrose suggests people connect with
him on Facebook or Twitter to stay up todate with what he’s busy with.V Tickets for the Cape Flats Comedy Jam which startsat 20:00 on Friday cost R70 each at the door or R60each for a block booking of 10 or more via [email protected]. Tickets for the Class Clownsshow which also starts at 20:00 at the Joseph StoneAuditorium on Thursday cost R30 each at the door.Visit the Cape Flats Comedy Jam or Class Clowns pageson Facebook for more information.

Her name is Katrina Muller. She is 48 yearsold and she is Running for Luca.Katrina lives in Heathfield with her hus-
bandBrent anddaughtersLuca (6) andChar-ly (3). Her son Ivo (28) lives in Gardens. Kat-rina is originally from Germany and hasbeen living in South Africa since 2001 whereshe met her husband, Brent.“I was always into sport, but never with
my whole heart. And then Luca was born.Beautiful. With Down's Syndrome.“So I have this pain in me since then, a
kind of guilt that there was nothing I couldhave done or nothing I could do to take itaway.Butwhen I run, I run forher. It’s print-ed on my shirt and in my heart and that iswhat I can do for her,” Katrina says.“That is why I started Running for Luca
ayearago. It is to raise awareness forDown'sSyndrome.When I comehomewithmymed-al, Luca knows Mommy ran for her and themedal is hers. Running sets me free in myheart, it takes the pain away, at least for awhile . . .“It’s about all our children with disabili-
ties. I’m fighting for acceptance .Our chil-dren are beautiful and very much able to fitinto society. Theymust be able to go tomain-stream schools and study. I stand up forthem to be included. All they need is a little
extra help.”According to her, communities need to be
open about people with disabilities. “We asparents should not struggle to find a schoolwhere they can study, play and makefriends. Our children are more alike thandifferent.” .Katrina says that the purpose of Running
for Luca is to get this message out there sothatmorepeople get educated about disabili-ties, and then therewill bemore acceptance.“The vision of Running for Luca is to give
children and adults with disabilities a placewhere they can participate in sport togetherandwithable bodiedpeople.Running forLu-ca wants to help other initiatives to raisemoney or simple raise awareness,” she says.According to Katrina people – especially
within the runner community –haveeducat-ed themselves and changed their attitude to-wards people with Down's Syndrome sinceshe started Running For Luca. “And theyare now the ambassadors for our children.Runners wearing Running For Luca shirtsat events have been seen by so many people.After all, each and every single one of us ispart of our community and we have to startto look out for each other.“Somy vision is simple: We are all human
beings and we all have the human right ofbeing loved and accepted for who we are,perfect in our imperfection.”

Try your first triathlon nowWith some time and training, a little
dedication, great motivation andmuch enthusiasm, anyone can fin-
ish a triathlon.This is according to insurer Discovery.
The 2015 Discovery World Triathlon CapeTownon 25 and 26April is a great first triath-lon to try, the company says. Following itssuccessful launch last year, the DiscoveryWorld Triathlon Cape Town will once againform part of the International Triathlon Un-ion’s (ITU) popular World Triathlon Series.Triathlon is a multidisciplinary sporting
event that consists of a swim leg, a cycle leg,and a running leg.The distances of each leg, and the total dis-
tance covered, depends on the event type:sprint or half-Olympic distance triathlons
are the shortest and fastest consisting of a750m swim, 20km cycle and 5km run.On the other end of the spectrum, Ironman
triathlon events start with a 3.86km swim,then a 180km cycle and end with a 42.2kmrun.Olympic and long-distance or half-Iron-
man events fall inbetween these distances.Completing a triathlon is a significant
commitment to training and competing. Buttriathlon is a great sport says Kate Roberts,SA Olympic triathlete: “The unique combi-nation of disciplines means three times thechallenge, but also three times the sense ofachievement.”
Many reasons to try a triEric Harr, in his book Triathlon Training,
