The Western Cape Government is taking big steps to keep schoolchildren safe on the roads by offering free vehicle safety checks for those who transport students. These checks, which look at important things like brakes and tyres, aim to prevent accidents and make sure all vehicles are safe for kids. Following a tragic accident that highlighted the need for better safety, this program invites transport operators to get their vehicles tested at convenient locations. By caring for young learners’ safety, the initiative shows a strong commitment to community responsibility and sets a shining example for others to follow.
In recent times, the Western Cape’s youth have been in the limelight. Premier Alan Winde proudly highlights the government’s dedication to empowering young talent. During a digital conference, six individuals who are a part of various Western Cape Government (WCG) programs shared their dreams and how these initiatives have played a significant role in their lives.
