Vorna Valley Residents Association plans to continue work into 2026

The executive said this year will focus on the Greig Street Initiative, which is currently fundraising to purchase a brush cutter.

The Vorna Valley Residents Association (VVRA) executive committee is adamant that 2026 will be yet another successful year.

The committee said their efforts to maintain the neighbourhood paid off last year.

“Thanks to our dedicated cleaners, a staggering 88 bags of litter were removed from our streets in 2025. We also saw fantastic results from our partnership with City Parks, which led to summer grass cutting along Harry Galaun, Moerdyk, Anton Hartman, and Greig streets.

Building on this momentum, 2026 is set to be a year of even greater progress,” said the executive committee. They said a major focus was the Greig Street initiative, which is currently fundraising to purchase a brush cutter.

“This will allow us to maintain the area independently, and keep it looking pristine all year round. Our goal is to expand these beautification and maintenance efforts across Vorna Valley. None of this happens in a vacuum.

The VVRA would like to extend our sincere gratitude to our subscribed members. Your financial support is the bedrock of everything we do. Also, to our local partners, City Power, City Parks and Zoo, Pikitup, Johannesburg Water, and The Midrand Reporter.”

They also thanked the people who made it happen, Ria Human, Neels Conradie, and François Pretorius. “Thank you to Mid Properties for hosting our meetings, and their contribution to our fantastic monthly newsletters.

Also to Paul’s Garden Services and Sophy Ramalepe for organising the wonderful Vorna Valley fun day on November 15. Last year reminded us that community isn’t just about living together; it’s about showing up for each other. Let’s keep making this a place we’re all proud to call home.”

They urged those who are not yet members to kindly consider joining VVRA, because their membership fees are a direct investment into their shared environment, safety, and community spirit. The executive committee said it’s what allows them to turn their collective vision for a better Vorna Valley into a reality.
