Usiko vier 11 jaar van groeiELBÉ VAN HEERDEN

ELF jaar sedert Usiko sy eerste jeugpro-gram vir die kinders van Jamestown be-gin het, is die organisasie steeds besig omtegroei enveral ’nverskil temaakinhon-derde kinders se lewens.

Dié program is deur inwoners van Jame-stownin2001vanstapelgestuur toeditduide-lik geword het dat die jeug, veral seuns, lei-ding en mentorskap benodig.

Vandag het hulle verskeie programme virdie jeug wat betrokke is by bendes of wat diegevaar loopombybendesbetrekteword.Ookvir die jeug wat reeds in konflik was met diegereg.Hul fokus is omjongmense te rehabili-teer met behulp van kampe, mentorskap enondersteuning.

Die naam Usiko kom van die Zoeloe-slag-spreuk: “Jy is die stories wat jy oor jouselfmaak.”

Volgens Clenn Vermeulen, ondervoorsit-ter van die direksie, het hy in 2001 as een vandie eerste mentors begin.

“Ons grootste doel is om tieners te leer datdit nie jou omstandighede is nie, maar joubesluite is wat jou toekoms bepaal. Ons ver-ander hul manier van dink, maar nie net vanindividue nie, maar ook van vriendekringesodat hulle ’n positiewe invloed op die helegemeenskap kan hê.

“Miskien is dit nie so duidelik van buitenie, maar ons kan sien hoe die programmehier ’n verskil gemaak het.

“Diegrootprobleemissteedsgebrokefami-lies en ons probeer deur Usiko dié gaping tevul deur ’n mentor óf ’n vaderfiguur aan diékinders te gee.”

Arnold Okkers, Usiko se projekbestuur-der, is ookreedsvan2001af asmentorbetrok-ke. “Aan die begin was daar slegs een pro-gram en ons het nou gegroei tot 19 program-me waar ons probeer om alle aspekte van diejeug te bereik. Ons kry hulle betrokke by‘groen’-klubs, lewensvaardigheidklasse ensportkampe. Ons raak nou jaarliks sowat 1000 kinders se lewens waar ons begin het metslegs 20 seuns.

“Nou, 11 jaar later, is ons op ’n baie goeieplek. Ons het ’n sterk span en gaan van kragtot krag.”

Hulle volgende doel is om die program souit te brei dat hulle hul eie kantore kan oprigwaar hulle onder meer rekenaarklasse kan

aanbied. Hulle help ook die kinders om hulbestuurderslisensies te kry.

“Ons probeer vir hulle die nodige vaardig-hede leer – soos om ’n motor te kan bestuuren ’n rekenaar te kan gebruik.”

Vernon Adams, voorsitter van die direk-sie, is baie opgewonde oor die rigting waarindieorganisasiebeweeg.“AlmalhierbyUsiko

is meer soos ’n uitgebreide familie. Jy kanelkedagdieverskillesienwatdieorganisasieteweegbring.”

Volgens Justin Newman, die voormaligeskoolhoof van Hoërskool Stellenzicht, waardie program begin het, kan die verskil watdie organisasie maak duidelik gesien word.

“Deur deel te kon wees van die kampe en

uitstappies kon ek die kinders nie net beterleer ken nie, maar ook die potensiaal besefwat die kinders inhou.”

Hy het sedertdien as skoolhoof afgetree,maar is steeds betrokke by die program.

How hot is too hot?With temperatures plum-meting as we approach thedepths of winter, Dial DirectInsurance is urging home-ownerstobecarefulwhenus-ing heating appliances.

“The risk of fire as a resultof the careless use of heatingappliances remains an over-arching threat for home-owners,” says Bradley duChenne, senior executive ofDial Direct Insurance. “Weoften hear heart-wrenchingstories of people being hurtor killed, and property beingdestroyed in shack fires.

“But what a lot of peopledon’t realise is that the aver-age family home is also atrisk of catching fire, particu-larly in winter when peopleuseheaters, firesandelectricblankets to keep themselveswarm.”

Heating equipment is theleading cause of home firesduring the winter months ofMay, June and July, and isthe second-leading cause ofhomefiresyear-round.Cook-ing is the number one causeof home fires.

Half of all home-firedeathsoccur at night. “Almostevery single South Africanhousehold uses some sort ofelectric heater, fireplace orfuel-fired heater for spaceheating in winter,” says DuChenne. “It is important forpeople to remember thatwhenever theyusegasor firein their homes, they need tobe vigilant.

“Homeowners should alsoensurethatallheatingequip-ment is properly maintainedand fit for the job. Fireplace-related incidents account fora big portion of house fires inSouth Africa, and often thesecan be put down to poormaintenance.”

The main causes of housefires include:

) heaters, stoves, irons,

electric blankets and otherelectrical equipment left onand unattended;

) candles left unattendedor near curtains;

) leaking gas heaters orstoves;

) paraffin stoves left unat-tended;

) an overheating compu-ter that ignites;

) cellphone chargers leftunattended in the socket;

) electrical overload on apower source;

) children who play withmatches or lighters nearflammable objects; and

) falling asleep with a litcigarette in bed.

Dial Direct Insurance of-fers the following tips toavoid fire in the home:

) install smoke alarmsthroughout your home;

) have a fire extinguisheravailable on every level ofyour home, and specificallynear the kitchen;

) take gas bottles to yournearest gas retailer to havethem checked for leaks on aregular basis – this includesgas bottles used for heaters,braais and stoves;

) unplugandswitchoff allelectrical appliances thatarenot in use;

) do not overload a powersource;

) ensure that electricalwiring is intact;

) keep clutter to a mini-mum in and around yourhome;

) never leave heaters,electric blankets or stovesunattended;

) check your heating ap-pliances for damage beforeyou fire them up this winter;and

) make sureyouhaveade-quate residential buildinginsurance in place to coveryou in the event of a fire atyour home.

Thief hits sugar crashAMAN’ssweet tooth landedhimin trouble when he was caughtstealingat a supermarket inClu-ver Street last week.

Themanwascaughtnear19:00on 5 June, when StellenboschWatch officer Solethu Mkehlewas called to the shop by theowner after the sugary subter-fuge was caught on camera.

The thief was still on thepremises when Mkehle arrived,and the officer quickly corneredhim for a search.

He found two boxes of choco-lates hidden in his trousers.

Mkehle then contacted his

company’s central monitoringcentre and asked for policebackup. The thief was handedover to the police for furtherinvestigation.

“CCTV cameras are an effec-tive way to monitor and detershoplifting, and improve thesafety of customers, staff and as-sets,” says Stellenbosch WatchCEO Glenn Schooling. “Anotherpractical feature is that the cam-era footage can be monitored on-site and around the clock.

“Importantly, camera footagecan also be used as evidence ina criminal case.”

Metal thieves move on FranschhoekTHE Franschhoek police are call-ing on the community to come for-ward with information that couldhelp them catch metal thieves inthe area.

This follows a spree of thefts onthe south side of Franschhoek,

where a number of farms were tar-geted. Constable Marize Papier,police spokesperson, says thethieves appear to be targeting tapsin particular. “We request infor-mation from the public and farmworkers. The public is urged to

come forward with places wherecopper pipes, taps and electric wir-ing may be sold.”

You can call Constable JacoStadler or Warrant Officer LeonBoonzaaier at Franschhoek PoliceStation on 0 021 876 8060.

GESOEK: Die Franschhoek-polisie is opsoek na dié man wat hulle moontlik kanbystaan in hul ondersoek rakende ’n roofvan ’n motorvoertuig vroeër vanjaar. Dievoorval het op 5 Mei op die hoek van LeRoux-weg en Boonzaaierstraat in Groendalplaasgevind. Enigiemand wat weet waardié man hom bevind, kan die ondersoek-beampte, adjunk-offisier Reinhard Prins by021 876 8060 bel.

POLISIE-VRIENDE: As deel van die Franschhoek-polisie se Safer Schools-projek, hetkonst. Marize Papier op 7 Junie ’n veiligheidspraatjie gehou by die Bumblebee Kleuter-skool, vir kinders tussen twee en vier jaar oud. Sy het hulle onder meer gewaarskuom nie met vreemdelinge te praat nie, teen onsedelike aanranding en dat die polisiehulle beskerm. Sy het ook seker gemaak hulle ken die polisie se noodnommer: 10111.

Keep your cholesterol levels in check this winter RESEARCHintohowseasonalvariationsin-fluence health shows that cholesterol levelsvary with the seasons, reaching their high-est levels in the winter months.

Seasonal changes in plasma volume arelargely thecauseof the increase inbloodcho-lesterol levels in the winter months, particu-larly in women. “High cholesterol is danger-ous as it is linked so closely to heart disease.Latest statistics show that 5,5 million SouthAfricans are at risk of heart disease due toelevated cholesterol and the medical frater-nity estimate thatup to 30%ofpatientsdon’teven know they are at risk, says Peter Jor-daan of Fedhealth.

He adds that it is important to regularlycheckyourcholesterol leveland ifnecessaryadopt measures to lower it before it becomesa problem.

According to him, there are many factorsthat increase the risk of having high choles-terol levels. By making a few simple lifestylechanges, you can substantially lower yourrisk he says.

“Giving up smoking can lower your cho-

lesterol levels, as well as help boost yourgood cholesterol (HDL) levels. Through add-ing exercise to your daily routine, you canalsomodestly loweryourLDLandraiseyourHDL, or “good” cholesterol. In addition, itwill help you to shed excess weight. Somechronic conditions can also cause your cho-lesterol levels to increase. Managing theseconditionswill alsohelpyou tomanageyourcholesterol levels,” he says.

Jordaan emphasises how modifying yourdiet can greatly improve your health andyour cholesterol levels.

He advises that people eat small, regularmeals and follow a healthy, balanced dietwhich include a variety of fruits and vegeta-bles, as well as foods that are high in fibre.Fatty foods should be avoided, especiallythose that are high in saturated fats such asfull cream dairy products, meat, chickenskin and fried foods. Salt intake should alsobe limited to less than one teaspoon a day.

Irrespective if your cholesterol is heredi-tary or lifestyle / diet-related it can easilybe measured by means of a simple blood test.

Debt got you in a squeeze?amount you pay back monthly on yourdebts. This will result in you taking longerto pay off your debt, and you will pay moreinterest as well.

In the end, you could spend up to sevenyearspayingashort-termdebt, likeacloth-ing account or a cash loan.

If you are lucky, you may have creditorswho will lower their interest rates to helpyou, but don’t count on it.

THE National Credit Act is the start ofa debt advice programme for South Af-ricans who cannot pay back their debt.

The ideaof theprogramme is tohelppeo-ple who have too much debt find their wayout of it – and take control of their moneyagain.

If you are struggling with debt, this maybeyourwayout of a tight spotwithouthav-ing to see your things taken away or beingput on a list as someone who cannot betrusted because of bad credit. It’s usuallya process that takes a lot of time, but whenit’s over, you’ll be free of debt and yourcredit record will be clean.

The debt advice programme helpspeople restructure their debt so thatthey can pay household costs andstill be able to pay off some debt atthe end of the month.

It’s a good option if you arereally in a tight spot, but youshould think of other ways ofdealing with your debt beforeyou enter the debt advice pro-gramme.Youcanaskyourcred-itors – the people who lent youmoney – to change the wayyou’re expected to pay themback.

You should only choose thedebt advice programme whenyou have no other options, be-cause it usually lowers the

The debt advice programme is not free,so you do lose money by entering this pro-gramme. It will cost you up to R6 000 at themost.

Don’t think of the debt advice pro-gramme as an easy way out. You will haveto show the court that you are seriousabout paying off your debt and makingchanges in the way you live to reach thisgoal. For example, you may need to giveup your car for a cheaper one, or make dowithout your DStv.

Alsokeepinmindthatwhileyouarepartof the debt advice programme, you will not

be able to get more credit or make useof your credit cards.

Everyone entering in the debt ad-vice programme will end up incourt – this is so thatyournewwayof paying off your debt can beapproved.

Before you decide to use thedebt advice programme, speakto your creditors and tell themyou are struggling to affordyour payments. If they are notwilling to help, talk to a debtadviser. To make sure youradviser can be trusted, checkthat they are registered withthe national credit regulator.
