CleanC the NPO behind the Cape Town Beach Clean Up held its first inter-community beach soccer tournament on Saturday 6th September. Despite inclement weather, 100 young soccer players from Dunoon, Joe Slovo, Langa and Table View took part in a number of 5-a-side games on Blouberg Beach.

“The event was preceded by the monthly beach clean up” says Organiser and CleanC Founder Greg Player “and as much as playing soccer was the intention, education about the environment, litter and the importance of keeping beaches and communities clean was equally as important”

All players were winners in the tournament as the focus more on fun than winning. Each player was given cooldrink courtesy of Jive and were given a healthy meal. 

The Soccer tournament forms part of a larger Beach Soccer Festival that CleanC are planning to host during the summer months and for which sponsorship is currently being sought. A series of tournaments will be held on various beaches around Cape Town with each including a beach clean up.  “These will become part of the CleanC and Cape Town annual calendar” says Greg Player “The event will create employment as well as promote the work of CleanC and the Cape Town beach clean up in a fun way”. 

From the Soccer Tournaments potential community youth leaders are identified and encouraged and invited to attend the youth leadership imbizos run by CleanC. From here community upliftment projects are identified by the youth in their communities, and with assistance from the CleanC NPO these are supported, planned and executed. Encouraging a spirit of entrepreneurship and developing leadership skills that can be transposed into the workplace and beyond.    

Dates for the forthcoming soccer festival have yet to be finalized and anyone who wishes to consider supporting or sponsoring this event should contact Greg Player.

Promises of a bargain leave several victims penniless

South Africa, August 18, 2014:  In recent weeks, a group of unscrupulous individuals operating under the company name ‘Baby Care Limited’ are posting adverts in various classifieds claiming to sell brand new Stokke strollers.  These are in fact fake listings and what may seem like a bargain is in fact a ploy to part the interested parties from their cash.

As the official distributor for the Stokke products in South Africa, it saddens us that the brand is being used for such malicious purposes. We urge all individuals interested in Stokke products, to check our listing of approved retailers to ensure that they do not fall victim to this scam.

Foscam, leading IP camera specialists, have released Fosbaby into the infant maket. Fosbaby is a baby monitor that sends a live camera feed directly to your cellphone; tablet; ipad or normal internet browser, enabling parents to monitor baby day and night.

Alternatively Fosbaby can be used to keep an eye on caregivers, ensuring peace of mind when parents are at work.

Fosbaby is plug and play, making setup easy for parents. Fosbaby is a 1.0 megapixel camera and full colour.

It also has night vision with a twist! The infra-red lights don’t glow in the dark, waking baby up. Instead, the infra-red lights have been hidden.

Another feature of Fosbaby is the ‘zone motion’ function. Parents can set up a zone around the baby so that when it detects motion in these areas, an alert is sent immediately to their cellphone using cloud service to the “Foscam Viewer” app.

Fosbaby has a beautiful design that will fit in well with nursery surroundings and is available in pink, blue or green. It can also detect room temperature and plays lullabys.

Mount Fosbaby in different places utilising the wall mount or handy tie that is part of the accessories it comes with.
