MMC Teixeira takes part in pre-winter fire awareness campaign

The new MMC for Community Services, Peter Teixeira, recently took part in the pre-winter fire awareness campaign in the Boitumelo informal settlement.

The campaign is a collaboration with Provincial-, District- and Municipal Fire Departments to combat shack fires.
 
The aim of the campaign is to educate the community on the risks that open fires present to them.
 
In order to assist the community, solar lights were given to all households in the vicinity to limit the use of candles. Teixeira also handed out sanitisers and masks to local centres for early childhood development.
 
 
At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
