Sonneglans cleans up dirty corner for Mandela Day
The river area on the corner of President Fouché and Witdoring roads are cleaned by the community as security guards stand by.
Some Sonneglans residents met and connected for the first time at a community clean-up for Mandela Day.
Neighbours shook hands and bumped fists, learning each other’s names between picking up rubbish and deadfall around the river area on the corner of President Fouché and Witdoring roads.
They filled up dozens of rubbish bags to be collected by Johannesburg City Parks and Zoo in the coming days. The rubbish bags and gloves were provided for, as well as hot drinks and biscuits.
“There is lots to clean, and I am very glad with the turnout,” said event organiser Verna Meintjes.
“We are grateful to the security company, Community Support Services, for being here and watching out for us.
