For example, in last month’s Vars , we featured Marshall Hendricks , determined Drakenstein resident and ward committee member. This local hero identified illegal dumping in a local park and decided to invite his community members to join him in cleaning up the area. The results were truly inspiring and created awareness of what is possible with the right mindset and teamwork. Over the next few months, the Municipality will continue to focus on similar role models and share their inspiring stories with you. “For Drakenstein Municipality, ensuring clean communities involves taking actions such as proper waste management; implementing recycling programmes; reducing pollution, littering and illegal dumping; and promoting education and awareness about the importance of maintaining a clean environment,” says Sonia Frans, Manager: Solid Waste and Landfill Management at the Municipality.

The Municipality invites our residents to take up their roles in this exciting campaign. “Be proud. Use the #MyCleanCommunity hashtag to show us how you’re keeping your community clean,” says Sonia.
