Kindness was on the menu at Darnall Country Club, where Tongaat Hulett served meals, warmth and goodwill to senior citizens in celebration of Mandela Day last Friday.

The elderly were treated to breakfast, lunch, sugar packs, blankets and hats.

Reflecting on this year’s Mandela Day theme, “It’s still in our hands to combat poverty and inequity,” Tongaat Hulett CEO Gavin Dalgleish said the company had a long and consistent record of making positive contributions to society, the environment and its stakeholders.

“Tongaat Hulett will continue ensuring the sugarcane farming value chain helps rural communities to achieve meaningful social impact and economic participation,” said Dalgleish.

Maidstone Mill Group Board chairperson Nathi Msweli expressed gratitude to Tongaat Hulett and the grower communities for honouring Madiba’s legacy through acts of compassion and kindness.
