In association with the City of Cape Town’s Social and Early Childhood Development Di- rectorate and the Out Of Africa Children’s Foundation, the facility, in close proximity to the Red Cross Children’s Hospital, provides amenities for pre-op and post-op children, but mainly for children who are terminally ill. The Mayoral Committee Member for Social and Early Childhood Development, Council- lor Beverley Cortje-Alcock, says that the serv- ices provided at the facility are mainly aimed at families from outside of Cape Town. “There was a great need for this type of fa- cility in the community and it has been ex- pressed for a long period of time. “Many of the families who bring their chil- dren for treatment have to travel by bus and sometimes illnesses and complications resur- face and they would have to trek all the way back to Cape Town. It made more sense and would be more convenient for families to be provided with home-based care until their children are well,” she says. The Children’s Centre can accommodate six families per month, and children who are being treated at Tygerberg Hospital, Groote Schuur, UCT Private Hospital and Red Cross Children’s Hospital, can stay at the hospice with their parents, free of charge. The City ensures the availability of the fa- cility and the Out of Africa Children’s Foun- dation provides the expertise and care need- ed for its successful operation. The CEO and Director of Out of Africa Chil- dren’s Foundation, Kim Highfield, says that the centre provides the families of children with pre- and post-trauma counselling ses- sions to help them cope better with their child’s condition. Out of Africa Children’s Foundation was recently officially recog- nised as a member of the International Chil- dren’s Palliative Care Network (ICPN) – the ICPN serves as an oversight body which en- sures that quality standards of services are being met and sustained. The only child staying at the facility at the moment is 10-year-old Cherlize Lerm from Bloemfontein, who was admitted on Sunday 4 February. Cherlize was diagnosed with leukaemia in August last year and has since had one of her legs amputated, her father, Leon, told this re- porter. “She will be undergoing intense chemo- therapy – a type of chemotherapy that is so strong, it will destroy her bone marrow and stem cells,” he says. Cherlize will be given medication that will ensure her body produces stem cells on its own. Within a month or so, she will undergo a lot of testing to guarantee that the cancer has been completely destroyed. “It’s a blessing to stay with her while she gets treatment, if we were not here who would have looked after her. The services provided by the facility has made things a lot easier on us, and we can now focus entirely on getting our daughter well again,” says Leon. The Lerm family wants the best for Cherl- ize and when they were given the option of getting treatment at either a hospital in Pre- toria or Cape Town, Leon says they chose Cape Town. “You want the best for your child, and for her to be cancer-free,” he says. Patients who stay at the Children’s Cen- tre’s facility with their parents are usually recommended by a doctor to do so. If you would like to qualify for a place with your child, contact Kim Highfield on 072 430 1818 or email [email protected]. A rose by any other name

Common down, golf courses to goTAMMY PETERSEN
AFTER finally hosting Occu-py Rondebsoch Common on
Saturday, the organisation Com-munities For Social Change hasset its sights on the next “unnec-essary” open space: golf courses.
Mario Wanza, the coordinator forthe movement, says it is a shamethat while people are forced to waitfor years for land to be earmarkedfor development, fortunate people“have the luxury of acres of land tohit a little golf ball around”.
“A form of entertainment pales incomparison to the housing crisisthe poor are facing. These lush,green lawns which serves a tinypercentage of the population is aslap in the face of those who live inshacks and backyards.
“If this government is really in-terested in tackling the backlog,why aren’t they thinking outsidethe box?”
He says members from the CSC –which includes organisations fromManenberg, Mitchell’s Plain, Hano-ver Park and even Stellenbosch –will now be looking towards “en-gaging” government and holdingmeetings to work towards makingdevelopments ongolf courses a real-ity.
“We have seen what we can dowhen we all work together. Thismovement isn’t something whichwill just lose steam and disappear.There needs to be positive changetobenefit thepoor andwewon’t restuntil it is achieved.”
Wanza adds that he considers theRondebosch Common project as a“success” despite only just over 100
people showing up for the event. OnSaturday, representatives from theCSC’s various branches attendedthe legal gathering, where resi-dents and the organisation held dis-cussions around the possibility ofdeveloping the common.
On Sunday, Khoisan leaders helda cleansing and renaming ceremo-ny at the common, where a newsign, with the words “Tsui Goab”was erected. The new name trans-lates to “the one who spreads thegreen shining colour over theearth” in the Nama language.
Rondebosch resident RichardJohnson says he now “fully under-stands” the plight of the poor.
“It seems quite silly that we aremaking such a fuss over what is re-ally an underused piece of landwhen there are so many familiesliving in despicable conditions.How can we make a noise abouthaving the poor as neighbourswhen right now they are livingwithout basic necessities like toi-lets?”
But not everyone is as supportiveas Johnson. “The common is a pieceof land that can never be developed,so they should really just scrap thatidea,” Elizabeth Houghton says.“It’s sad that they are living the waythey are, but they should be movedto an area where they can be accom-modated, and that area is not here.”
Wanza says he is glad that peopleare talking about the occupation, asthat is what the CSC was hoping toachieve.“One of our priorities wasto open a dialogue between the richand the poor. We will engage withvarious communities and plan theway forward so that people’s livescan finally change.”
COMMON GOAL: A little over 100 people attended the Communities for Social Change summit held at the Rondebosch Common on Saturday.

• Improve the well-being of the marine socio-ecological system;
• Support and strengthen local organisations and initiatives;
• Improve collective management efforts;

AN independent review panelmade up of respected businessand community figures will criti-
cally analyse the structure and opera-tions of the Muslim Judicial Council’sHalaal Trust.
This was announced by the MJC yester-day (Monday) and follows the Orion meatscandal which has outraged Muslims acrossthe country.
People’s Post last week reported that Mus-lims have lost faith in the MJC and werecalling for the organisation to be disbanded,blaming a lack of transparency.
Nabeweya Malick, MJC spokesperson,says the analysis will be led by an influen-tial Pretoria businessman and communityactivist, Haroon Kalla.
“The panel will investigate the halaal cer-tification operation of the MJCHT and willmake recommendations to improve its over-all performance to ensure that it functionsas a trusted service provider to the Muslimcommunities throughout South Africa.
“The independent panel is the result of apublic commitment by the MJCHT to re-view its operations in light of the recent Ori-on halaal meat scandal which has
received prominent media coverage,”says Malick.
She says Kalla will lead a broad panel con-sisting of Shari’ah law (Islamic law) ex-perts, business leaders and professionalswho have the depth of experience to guidethe MJCHT to attain operational excellenceand good governance in its halaal certifica-tion operations.
President of the MJC, Moulana IhsaanHendricks, has pledged the MJC’s full coop-eration with the independent review panel.“We welcome the guidance of the independ-
ent review panel andlook forward to workingwith them to strengthenthe MJCHT,” says Hen-dricks.
Both Hendricks andKalla says the MJC orthe MJCHT have playedno role in the selectionand appointment of thereview panel’s mem-bers.
Two independent law-yers, Zahir Willliamsand Noor Kapdi, offeredtheir assistance to theMJC free of charge andundertook the responsi-bility of independentlyestablishing the reviewpanel.
Williams is a legal ex-ecutive employed by aglobal energy companyand Kapdi is a partner ata specialist oil
and gas law firm.The two consulted var-
ious community leadersin the process of inde-pendently selecting andappointing the membersof the review panel.
Abdul Mohamed, founder of the groupMuslims Concerned, says the MJC shouldstill not operate.
“They have embarrassed all Muslims.How can we trust them after this? We stilldon’t know whether we ate halaal productsor not. No matter what the analysis finds,they are already guilty in the eyes of manyMuslims and the MJC should be shutdown.”
Members of Muslims Concerned protest-
ed in front of the MJC office on Friday, butAthlone police asked them to leave as it wasan illegal gathering.
“We were 13 members who picketed, yetwe were forced off the premises. We willbe picketing everyday until the MJC is re-moved.”
. A full list of the names of the reviewpanel is available on the MJCHT website.
The review panel will via the MJCHTwebsite communicate its terms of refer-ence and timelines for completion of its
work.The findings and recommendations of the
review panel will be made public after it hasbeen presented to the MJC.

Proper documents mean faster treatmentIN a bid to avoid any delays inthe treatment of patients, theWestern Cape department ofhealth urges patients to havethe correct documents when go-ing to a community health cen-tre (CHC) or state health facili-ty.
Depending on the individualseconomic status, a fee of R70 is re-quested.
The price might increase, de-pending on the type of medicalservice the patient would require.
All patients should have the fol-lowing documents to avoid medi-cal assistance being delayed
. Health facility /hospital ap-pointment card or referral letter.
. Identity document
. Salary wage slip or unemploy-ment card.
. Medical aid card
. Pension fund (if applicable)
. Proof of address (such as wa-ter, rates or other utility bills.)
Not having these documentswhen visiting the CHC can lead toproblems such as the wrong infor-mation being captured and incor-
rect accounts submitted to pa-tients.
If the patient has to be re-ferred, it’s their responsibility tomake sure the health professionalwho helped them, issues themwith the referral letter needed tofacilitate the next step in theirtreatment.

Dog owner blamedfor dog’s deathTAURIQ HASSEN
THE owner of a dog responsible for at-tacking two young girls has been blamedby the Cape of Good Hope (CoGH) SPCAafter the dog had to be humanely eutha-nized.
Two-year-old Meeka-Riley Lackey, sus-tained puncture wounds to her left leg onClifton beach. (“Dog bites toddler,” People’sPost, 17 January 2012.)
CoGH CEO, Allan Perrins, believes thatthe “irresponsible behaviour” of the self-proclaimed animal behaviourist and dogshaman, James Lech, led to the death of thedog.
According to Lech’s website, www.good-dog.co.za, he has achieved an “extremelyhigh physical and psychological rehabilita-tion of dogs in South Africa”.
The website also indicated that Lech wasborn into a family of healers, which includedDoctors, Geneticists and Scientists.
He services, as advertised on the website,highlighted that the “healer” worked with avariety of dogs, from Pugs to Rottweilers ona wide range of behavioural issues, from in-security to severe “Red Zone”.
“There is no such thing as a dangerousdog, but rather dangerous owners,” says Per-rins.
He added that Lech admitted to the SPCAthat the same Rottweiler attacked a younggirl in Hyde Park shopping centre in Julylast year, but “shockingly”, still took the doginto a public space.
“He took that dog into a public space with-out any consideration for anyone else’s well-being and this has cost the dog its life,” saysPerrins.
The SPCA is now concerned that Lechmight get a new dog, because only the courtswould be able to deny him ownership underthe Animals Protection Act (APA).
“We had concerns about Mr Lech for sometime, but there wasn't sufficient evidence totake action against him under the APA,”says Perrins.
“There are some very experienced andwell respected animal behaviourist outthere, but unfortunately there are also thosewho use terms such as “Wrangler”, “Sha-man” and “Whisperer”, without specific ref-erence to any qualification, other than self-proclaimed ability,” Perrins explained.
Neil Arendse from the City’s Law Enforce-ment, confirmed that Lech is now beingcharged under the Animal Protection Actand is due to appear in court at a later date.
However, Law Enforcement has alreadypassed the case onto the SAPS, who is nowheading the investigation against the dogshaman. Perrins urged the public to rathercontact The South African Board for Com-panion Animal Professionals (SABCAP),should they require assistance from an ani-mal behaviourist.
SABCAP can be contacted on 082 411 4156or visit www.sabcap.org.za

Shirley Valentyn – anything but romanticShirley Valentyn – anything but romanticWILLY RUSSEL
WHEN actress Shaleen Surtie-Richardsand director Hennie van Greunen firstmet in 2007 to discuss the possibility ofdoing a Cape Town version of Willy Rus-sell’s beloved play, they could not havean inkling of what lay ahead.
After Shirley Valentyn opened in 2008with “Nenna” in the title role, thousandshad the opportunity to see the show on stageuntil it completed its run two years later.
But tenacious as always, the ghost of
Shirley Valentyn continued to haunt audi-ences across the country. Requests stillpoured in, in spite of Shaleen and Hennie’shectic schedules. Time was a major obsta-cle, until now.
Cape Town audiences have the chance tosee Shirley Valentyn in the intimate settingof the Golden Arrow Studio in the BaxterTheatreCentre,whichwill run till Saturday18 February.
Although Willy Russell’s original play isapproaching the quarter-of-a-century mark,the universal appeal of the story of onewoman’s journey to self-discovery on a road
that is poignant, funny and sad, still has thesame impact on today’s audiences as onthose very first audiences more than twodecades ago. Between Shaleen’s exceptionalacting skills and Hennie’s experience in cre-ating shows that move and change audienc-es, this production will leave no one un-touched.
Celebrated writer/director/producerHennie van Greunen has proven again andagain that he has an eye for brilliant playsin productions like Die Hangkas Haas, Lyf,Op die vrou af, Die Tafel, Anna se Engel,Blougat, Festen, Die vrou wat haar man gek-
ook het, Die Naaimasjien, Janneman andDinsdae by Morrie.
With this play, Shaleen returned to whathad always been her spiritual home as per-former: the stage. After seeing Willy Rus-sell’s Shirley Valentine (the London produc-tion with Pauline Collins) Shaleen fell inlove with this feisty, straight-talking wom-an who decides to change her entire life inmid-sentence. “I’m still going to play her,”Shaleen thought to herself. And now she is.
So come and join Shirley for a glass ofwine, a plate of Kaapse curry and lots of hi-larious wisdom. Book at Computicket.

Rugby TensLIAM MOSES
THE fourth instalment of the an-nual Cape Town Tens rugbytournament took place at Hamil-tons Rugby Football Club thispast weekend.
Seventy-Four teams fromaroundSouth Africa, and a hand-full ofteams from other countries, took tothe field on Friday 3 and Saturday4 February in front of an ever-in-creasing crowd of passionate sup-porters.
Matches at the tournament in-volve two teams of ten play-ers each, playing two nine-minute halves of full-con-tact rugby, under rules sim-ilar to the seven-man game.
The smaller teams, com-bined with rules which pro-mote try-scoring and thefact that teams are allowedunlimited substitutionsmeant that fans were treat-ed to a spectacle of runningrugby.
Revellers at the Tens alsoenjoyed the carnival atmos-phere, and the chance tomeetformer international rugbyplayers, such as former BokQuinton Davids, All Blackgreats Justin Marshall andScott Robertson, former Sa-
moan international Isaac Feau’na-ti, and David Rees and Leon Lloyd,who both represented England.
This year the squads were divid-ed into four different leagues – a“Heavy Social Beer League”,“Light Social Beer League”, “Vet-eran’s League” for over 35-year-olds, and the more competitive“Premier League”.
The tournament is the brain-child of Don Everitt, Ron Rutlandand former Springbok and WesternProvince players Bobby Skinstadand Robbie Fleck. The first tourna-ment happened in 2009.
