My South Africa ‘Says no to drugs’

Participants will be walking from Rotunda Park through the streets of Wards 124 and 56

THE City of Johannesburg’s Environmental Health Region F in conjunction with SAPS and JMPD is embarking on a drug awareness drive at Rotunda Park from 09:00 on Friday, September 9. The campaign started in 2015.

This anti-drug awareness campaign will be held in the Turffontein, Kenilworth and Rosettenville areas where different stakeholders, NGOs and government institutions as well as scholars from several schools will be involved.

Participants will be walking from Rotunda Park through the streets of Wards 124 and 56 and ending back at Rotunda Park to bring awareness on the dangers of substance abuse.

In 2015 over 300 people participated in this walk and the organisers would like to improve on these numbers this year in order to create a bigger and greater awareness of this pandemic that is killing the leaders of tomorrow.
