In the Makhaza district of Cape Town, the Khayelitsha Canoe Club is leading the way in restoring the Blowy wetland. Their aim is to create an ecofriendly haven for the local community by removing invasive water hyacinths and clearing rubbish from the area. The club comprises over 20 volunteers, led by brothers Siyanda and Akhona Sopangisa, who founded the club in 2023.
