Here how the inspiration from this story came from a “what if” moment while Penny was hiking with friends in the mountainous Tsitsikamma region of South Africa where she lives, how she had to change the ending of her novel because her character insisted on it, and how after years in fact-based journalism she rediscovered her childhood joy in telling made-up stories. Penny Haw worked as a journalist and columnist for more than three decades, writing for many leading South African newspapers and magazines before yielding to a lifelong yearning to create fiction. Her stories feature remarkable women, illustrate her love for nature and animals, and explore the interconnectedness of all living things. Her children's book, Nicko was published in 2017. It was followed by a work of contemporary fiction, The Wilderness Between Us in 2021. Penny's debut historical fiction, The Invincible Miss Cust is based on the life of Britain and Ireland's first woman veterinary surgeon, Aleen Cust and will be published by Sourcebooks in October 2022. A second work of historical fiction will be published, also by Sourcebooks, in 2023. Penny lives in Hout Bay near Cape Town with her husband and three dogs, all of whom are well-walked.

Harmony Clinic Rehab Review (Podcast) https://www.worldsbest.rehab/harmony-clinic/ Harmony Clinic is located in Cape Town, South Africa and is another of the country's leading rehab centers. South Africa has a growing reputation as the home to high-quality rehab centers. Harmony Clinic was founded in 2012 to treat men and women suffering with addiction in their day-to-day lives. The luxury rehab has space for up to 50 clients at one time. Although it can accept a large number of guests for treatment, you will have plenty of time to work with therapists at the spacious recovery center. Harmony Clinic bases its care on the Minnesota Model for treatment. Often known as the “abstinence model,” the Minnesota Model formed out of the original 12-step program created by Alcoholics Anonymous. The Minnesota Model expands the 12-steps to include doctors and psychiatrists to treat addiction. What is a day at Harmony Clinic like? Harmony Clinic provides holistic treatment to clients suffering from substance abuse disorder and co-occurring mental health issues. The luxury rehab is one of South Africa's leading treatment facilities when it comes to dual-diagnosis. Clients from all over the world have sought out Harmony Clinic for the treatment of cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, marijuana, and prescription pills. In addition, Harmony Clinic works with guests suffering from process addictions such as gambling and sex addiction. You may undergo medically-managed detoxification upon arrival at Harmony Clinic. After undergoing detox, you will join the full program at the rehab, which includes the Minnesota Model of addiction treatment. Harmony Clinic has a four-phase program consisting of detox, change therapy, root therapy, and continual care. Once detox ends, you will learn the skills to replace destructive behaviors. In the place of these behaviors, you will learn healthy habits to live your life. In root therapy, you will resolve past trauma and the issues that led to your addiction. Individual and group therapy is provided during this phase, and family members may become involved in the process. Finally, you will undergo continual care. The rehab's expert staff will create a customized plan for your aftercare. The plan will include support groups, 12-step meetings, online resources, and a recovery coach to help you along. Harmony Clinic Accommodation Most clients stay at Harmony Clinic for 30 days, but there is the option to stay for longer if further help is needed. Harmony Clinic is located in the Cape Town village of Hout Bay. The center is encompassed by the local mountains, forests, and sea. This gives you the perfect backdrop for healing. Many clients come from city environments which add to their stress. The natural surroundings of Hout Bay are relaxing for many residential guests. Harmony Clinic provides shared and private bedrooms and you will find a swimming pool on-site to relax at. The program provides activities to residents, but there is the opportunity to make use of the local countryside when clients are not in therapy. The beaches and mountains that surround the rehab are ideal for exploring. The cost of a 30-day stay at Harmony Clinic is roughly $3,300. Your stay at Harmony Clinic will give you the chance to restart your life free of addiction and co-occurring mental health issues.

Western Cape Premier Alan Winde has painted a grim picture of policing in the province, revealing a shortage of officers and saying that it's common for the province's 150 police precincts to have "too few boots on the ground". Winde and Community Safety MEC Albert Fritz were presenting the findings of the provincial government's Policing Needs and Priorities (PNP) report in a digital briefing on Thursday. "The PNP report is an invaluable resource in understanding the constraints and needs of our police force. The 2020/21 report is no exception and highlights clear recommendations to address this, particularly as these relate to resource constraints within SAPS," Winde said. The report contained several recommendations, including the recruitment and appointment of additional officers and the training of existing officers through a revised curriculum. Improvements to vehicle fleet management and the upgrading of police stations where needed were also recommended. The provincial government has threatened to launch an intergovernmental dispute if resources constraints are not addressed. The report revealed that province had lost more than 11 000 officers over the last decade. Fritz said: "This has been a feature in the findings of PNP reports over the years. And things are deteriorating. Whereas in 2011/2012, the SAPS had 199 345 service members, by the end of March 2020, this figure stood at 187 358: a decrease of 11 987." In addition, police resources were not fairly allocated in the province, Fritz said. He said that while some suburban police stations had one officer for every 100 residents, high-density areas such as townships and the Cape Flats had vastly different statistics. In Ravensmead, there is one police officer for every 895 people and in Hout Bay, one officer for every 804 people. In the Gugulethu precinct, the ratio is 1: 642, in Atlantis it's 1: 715 and in Harare it's 1:731. The national average is one police officer for every 400 people. Winde and Fritz used the digicon to lash out at Police Minister Bheki Cele for his statements at an imbizo in Mitchells Plain over the weekend when he said that the government had "put every effort" into policing the Western Cape. Cele claimed the province received the "lion's share" of policing resources. Winde responded: "This is out of touch with reality. If the national minister will not acknowledge the very serious resourcing challenges that our province faces, and which we have communicated to him in detail, it becomes increasingly clear that he has not adequately engaged with his constitutional function in line with . the Constitution." There is an estimated shortage of more than 500 detectives in the Western Cape, and of those who are employed, almost half have a caseload of around 200 dockets. The norm is between 50 and 60 dockets. Gaps in the training of detectives is a key concern for Fritz. He said that of those detectives eligible for training, 91% had not received training in the Specialised Detective Learning Programme, 88% had not been trained to investigate fraud, and 46% had not completed the Basic Detective Learning Programme. In 2019, the province gave notice of an intergovernmental dispute over police resources. "Following clear commitments made on addressing resourcing by the national government, it was decided that the process would be suspended whilst negotiations continued. We want to make clear today that this option of pursuing an intergovernmental dispute remains firmly on the table for the Western Cape government. The latest comments by the minister do not provide us with the confidence that the national government is sticking to these commitments and, if anything, believes enough has been done already," Winde said.

If you walked by on a Friday night, it is unlikely that you could imagine the energy, education and empowerment that is taking place inside. The Boxing Club is the pride of a Non Governmental Organization dedicated to using the sport to advance the athletic skill as well as to train athletes to use boxing to skillfully strike and defend and to find strength, control - in and out of the ring. The club strives to build professional athletic careers. Most of all it exists to inspire young athletes to 'fight the good fight' and to give them a space to do just that. One of the NGO Directors, Jonny Cohen, will discuss the NGO and its future potential. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Cass Collier grew up surfing with his dad in apartheid South Africa, where signs designated the beaches as "whites-only", "blacks-only", or "coloureds-only" areas. The rules were enforced, often brutally, not only by the police but also by white surfers who would tell the Collier family to "go to your own beach" if they tried to surf in areas reserved for white people. But Cass's dad Ahmed, a pioneering South African surfer and member of the ANC, never backed down, teaching Cass that he had a right to be on the sand and in the water at any beach he chose. Cass eventually became a world-class surfer and went on to win the International Surfing Association Big Wave championships in Mexico in 1999, alongside his friend and fellow Rastafarian Ian Armstrong. He tells Anu Anand about the joy of big waves, and remembers the heartbreak and sacrifices he and his family faced en route to the world title.

This week in Being Green, Glynis Crook speaks to Alison Davison, Head for Waste Minimisation for the City of Cape Town, about a pilot project to divert organic waste from landfills. In South Africa, a third of the food produced is never consumed and 90% of it ends up in rubbish dumps. There it produces carbon dioxide and methane gas, which is even more devastating for the climate. The good news is that national government is responding to the challenge and in the Western Cape, the provincial government has set a target for a 50% diversion of organic waste from landfills by 2022 and 100% by 2027. In February the City of Cape Town launched a trial project, providing residents with 5 litre buckets which they can take home and use for their food waste. Participants then return them to one of eight designated sites across the city where the container will be decanted, cleaned and handed back. At the end of June, the City will then assess whether the programme has the potential for further rollout. To find our more you can speak to staff at one of the drop-off sites in Belhar, Killarney, Hout Bay, Woodstock, the CBD, Claremont, Durbanville, and Somerset West, or e-mail: re.cycling@capetown.gov.za.

Jacaranda FM — Igol Lekweni thought the fight was over. But after battling cancer and emerging victorious, she found herself at war again. This time, it was because of an abusive relationship. “I had to pull myself out from the gutter,” Lekweni says. “I literally lost everything.” Despite the struggles she faced, Lekweni was able to put the strands of her life back together – through hairstyling. Lekweni’s fascination began as a child when she was exposed to different styles on television and in magazines. “Our hair tells a story and it's a form of expression,” she says. “It spoke to me.” During Lekweni’s ordeals, the art of washing, cutting, and colouring hair allowed her to meditate and explore her strengths. As a hairstylist, Lekweni could make clients feel beautiful, provide a listening ear, and fulfil her passion of bringing happiness to others. “I was able to overcome my struggles by seeing different people all the time,” she says. What started as a childhood ambition has helped Lekweni recover from her pain and achieve her goals. After saving up her hard-earned money, Lekweni is now the owner of a hair salon in Hout Bay and has her own brand of products. “Becoming a fighter wasn’t my choice,” she says. “It was a necessity for me to live my dream.” Find what you love, and let it heal you.

Dennis Schiergen saß als deutscher Jockey auf Wargrave, dem britischen Sieger im 81. Großen Preis von St. Moritz. Doch für den 25-Jährigen fühlte sich das doch wie ein Heimspiel an, denn der älteste Sohn von Erfolgstrainer Peter Schiergen lebt seit zwei Jahren in der Schweiz. Dort hat er ein internationales Studium erfolgreich abgeschlossen und startet neben dem Rennreiten auch im Management eines großen Konzerns beruflich durch. Von der ganz großen Karriere als Jockey hat er sich verabschiedet, dafür kann er nicht mehr das nötige Gewicht in den Sattel bringen, aber der Rennsport spielt weiter ein große Rolle für den Mann, der mit 18 Jahren als bisher einziger Amateur weltweit ein Gr. I-Rennen gewinnen konnte. Der Sieg im 81. Großen Preis von St. Moritz war ein weiteres Karriere-Highlight für ihn. Das alles und mehr erzählt er uns im großen Podcast-Interview. Die Nachlese zum Rennen auf Schnee mit den Stimmen zum Zweitplatzierten Hout Bay (Trainer Mario Hofer) und dem enttäuschend laufenden Jacksun (Trainer Michael Figge) Dazu gibt es die Vorschau zum Grand Prix in Cagnes-sur-Mer, ein Listenrennen am Finaltag des Meetings über 2.500m, mit den beiden deutschen Startern Ladykiller (Trainer Andreas Wöhler, Jockey Bauyrzhan Murzabayev) und Chouain (Miro Rulec) mit den Stimmen der Trainer. Die Wett-Tipps dafür und für die Rennen in Dortmund liefert Christian Jungfleisch. Catrin Nack hat die Tipps für die Hindernisrennen in Kempton. Ein Podcast von Frauke Delius. Zitate Dennis Schiergen (deutscher Jockey und Manager in der Schweiz) „Der Sieg mit Wargrave im Großen Preis von St. Moritz gehört zu den Höhepunkten meiner Karriere. Ich bin superhappy, dass ich das Pferd reiten durfte. Für den Mitbesitzer bin ich im letzten Jahr schon in Großen Preis geritten, da sind wir Letzter geworden, aber er meinte, dass er wiederkommen würde. Zehn Tagen vor dem Rennen hat er mich angerufen.“ „Ich habe in Zürich einen internationalen Studienabschluß als Master of Business Administration gemacht und bin mit meiner Freundin Valeria in der Schweiz geblieben. Im Moment arbeite als Trainee bei Coca Cola und reite dazu noch etwa 100 Rennen im Jahr und trainiere vier- bis fünfmal in der Woche. Ich bin froh, dass ich beides machen kann. Wegen zunehmender Gewichtsprobleme habe ich mit schweren Herzens gegen eine Karriere als Profijockey entschieden.“ „Klar, könnte ich mir vorstellen, einmal auf im deutschen Galopprennsport zu arbeiten. Aber jetzt bin ich noch zu jung und möchte erstmal beruflich noch Erfahrung sammeln.“ „Erst viel später habe ich realisiert, wie toll dieser Sieg mit Nymphea im Großen Preis von Berlin war. Der erste Gr. I-Sieg eines Amateurs überhaupt auf der Welt - und das mit 18 Jahren. Da bin ich stolz drauf.“ Andreas Wöhler (Trainer von Ladykiller, Starter im Grand Prix von Cagnes-sur-Mer) „Ich bleibe hier in Gütersloh und schaue mir das Rennen im Fernsehen an. Hier gibt es zu viel Arbeit, um nach Südfrankreich zu reisen. Ladykiller hat für mich eine gute Platzchance, trägt auch viel Gewicht. Deshalb ist für mich die einzige Stute im Feld favorisiert.“
Der 81. Große Preis von St. Moritz ist mit 111.111 Schweizer Franken dotiert und gehört zu den ersten Highlights des Galopp-Jahres 2020. Das besondere an diesem Rennen: Es wird auf dem zugefrorenen St. Moritzer See auf Schnee gelaufen und das macht die Aufgabe für Wetter knifflig. Denn „Schneeerfahrung“ kann in diesem Rennen durchaus die „Klasse“ schlagen, das Rennen ist offen und spannend. 15 Pferde sind im Rennen, darunter auch mit All For Arthur, Hout Bay, Jacksun und Melodino vier deutsche Hoffnungsträger, zu denen wir in unserer großen Vorschau Interviews hören von Höny-Hofs Gestütleiter Simon Minch, Jockey Michael Cadeddu und den Trainern Mario Hofer, Michael Figge und Christian von der Recke. Außerdem halten wir Rückschau auf einen stürmischen Renntag in Dortmund. Die neue Videoleinwand musste wegen des Sturmtiefs Sabine nach dem 3. Rennen eingefahren werden, aber alle Pferde und Reiter kamen heil ins Ziel. Zum Renntag hören wir den Präsidenten Andreas Tiedtke. Maxim Pecheur siegte im Sattel von Akatino mit 24 Längen und landete mit diesem „Sonntagsspaziergang“ seinen 5. Sieg hierzulande. Wir hören den Trainer Axel Kleinkorres zu den Gründen seines Wechsels von Neuss nach Mülheim und wir porträtieren den jungen Trainer Marian Falk Weißmeier und seine Schwester Esther Ruth Weißmeier, die als Rennreiterin schon über 100 Rennen gewonnen hat. Außerdem beobachten wir den Jockey Enki Ganbat bei der Suche nach der richtigen RaceBets-Satteldecke mit der Nummer 5 … die ging am Ende sehr glücklich aus. Die Wett-Tipps für Dortmund liefert Christian Jungfleisch, für die Tipps für den Großen Preis von St. Moritz ist Ronald Köhler zuständig. Ein Podcast von Frauke Delius. Zitate Simon Minch (Gestütsleiter Höny-Hof zum Start von All For Arthur im 81. Großen Preis von St. Moritz) „Ich kann leider nicht in St. Moritz dabei sein, weil wir wegen Abfohlungen im Gestüt bleiben müssen. Schnee ist ein unbekannter Boden für All For Arthur, doch wir haben dieses Rennen seit sechs Monaten im Visier. Er kommt jetzt aus einer längeren Pause, das Pferd läuft immer gut bei seinem ersten Start. Wir fahren nicht ganz ohne Mumm.“ Mario Hofer (Trainer von Hout Bay, der im Großen Preis von St. Moritz läuft) „Ich gehe davon aus, dass Hout Bay gut mit dem Schnee zurechtkommt, weil das Pferd bisher auf jedem Untergrund gut gelaufen ist. Die Anreise ist relativ kurzfristig, damit er nicht ins Klima kommt mit der Höhenluft. Aber man braucht für solche Rennen immer sehr viel Glück“ Michael Figge (Trainer von Jacksun, der in Großen Preis von St. Moritz läuft) „Ich muss leider sagen, so einen schwierigen Großen Preis von St. Moritz gab es schon lange nicht mehr. Wir sind ja mit Jacksun auch im Wettmarkt Außenseiter, obwohl der im letzten Jahr als Vierter gezeigt hat, dass er Schnee mag. Wir reisen direkt aus Cagnes-Sur-Mer an.“ Marian Falk Weißmeier (Jung-Trainer aus Mülheim) „Der Wechsel nach Mülheim war schon sehr schwierig, aber langsam kommen wir in Tritt. Mit Town Charter habe ich ein tolles Pferd, der hat für mich schon neunmal gewonnen. Momentan habe ich 15 Pferde im Stall, ich hoffe, dass es zum Start in die grüne Saison um die 20 sein werden.“ Esther Ruth Weißmeier (Rennreiterin aus Sonsbeck) „Meine Mutter als Trainerin unterstützt mich sehr, aber man muss als Frau schon Biss haben in diesem Beruf. Ich weiß nicht, ob ich den noch lange ausüben kann, weil ich an einer Pferdeallergie leide, die sich bedauerlicherweise verschlimmert hat.“ Axel Kleinkorres (Galoppertrainer vor dem Wechsel nach Mülheim) „Ich habe keine Hoffnung mehr, dass sich in Neuss noch was tut. Von Mülheim habe ich ein Angebot gekriegt, zu dem ich nicht ‚nein‘ sagen konnte. Man ist&
Guests : Will Ronquest-Ross Glittering sunlight beckons at the end of the cobalt tunnel. Glide across the water’s surface, dance with the sway of the board, and feel the rush of the wave collapsing. Surfing is one of the most thrilling ways to experience the ocean. But it’s expensive. The cost of the sport, from lessons to surfboards and wetsuits, keeps many people onshore. Luckily, nine-year-old Will Ronquest-Ross is helping other kids catch their big break. Ronquest-Ross comes from a family of passionate surfers, which is how he began navigating the waves at the age of five. Wanting to share this phenomena with friends, he went door-to-door in Hout Bay asking children to join. That’s when he realised that even those living in close proximity to the beach were unable to afford the magic of surf. So began his quest for equality. Ronquest-Ross started a BackaBuddy campaign, which raised enough money for him to give others an opportunity to learn. Coached by the Cape Town School of Surfing, Ronquest-Ross practises with kids from Imizamo Yethu. His proudest moment has been hearing his friends speak excitedly about their first time riding a wave. By sharing what he loves, Ronquest-Ross is making surfing an accessible sport for all. Yazdaan Ally Shoneez Ganie had a difficult pregnancy. Her son, Yazdaan Ally, was born prematurely and doctors didn’t give him long to live. But Ally survived. At the age of six, he was diagnosed with autism. Not understanding the neurobehavioral condition, his mother struggled at first.After extensive research, she learnt how to stand alongside Ally as he creatively conquers life. Children with autism may experience a range of challenges. In Ally’s case, he battles with writing, speaking, and muscle coordination. With his mother’s encouragement, Ally uses art as a form of release and expression. Ally’s colourful pictures depict sunny days, soccer games, and even include an impressive portrayal of Bigfoot. These illustrations allow Ally’s mother to understand his world. Together with the right knowledge and tools, she’s helping him excel. With faith, determination, and unconditional love, they’re demonstrating that the idea of normal is only relative. Nelisiwe Zuma. Things were looking up for Nelisiwe Zuma. The Durbanite had just been offered a job in California. Unable to contain her excitement, Zuma joined her friends to celebrate her big break. But on her way home, their car flew off the road. Zuma woke up three weeks after the crash in ICU. Her friend who’d been driving didn’t make it. The emotional and physical trauma seemed insurmountable. In the months that followed, Zuma had to undergo multiple surgeries, including a spinal fusion and a skin graft on her stomach. She was also dependent on a colostomy bag. As her body changed, Zuma became increasingly depressed. But in the process of recuperating, she began to realise how incredible it was to have survived. Her scars were a symbol of life, a reminder to cherish her body and her second chance. Today, Zuma advocates for people to accept themselves, blemishes and all. She models with her scars on show, an image of resilience. With her site, Madame Blogger, Zuma offers an honest account of her experiences and creates a space for others to share theirs. While she still has bad days, Zuma is embracing her path of healing. Along this journey, she’s found a greater purpose. Lookout Sibanda Lookout Sibanda is a man of few words. Instead, he prefers to craft his expression through art. Sibanda’s creative flair sparked in high school when his friends taught him to paint. So when he couldn’t afford to study after matric, he chose to pursue his passion by decorating ceramics with brushes of colour. But adding the final touches wasn’t enough. Sibanda felt compelled to learn pottery from inception. Working for established ceramists Elza van Dijk and Nicole Kingston exposed Sibanda to their techniques. Even without formal classes, he learnt to produce pots, bowls, and plates. Soon, Sibanda started promoting his wares at markets and exhibitions in Port Elizabeth, building a reputation under the name Lookout Ceramics. Today, Sibanda holds success in the palm of his hand. His signature work features abstract and geometric patterns, with vivid colours inspired by the blankets his grandmother used to make. In 2018, knitwear designer Laduma Ngxokolo chose to mentor Sibanda as a result of his talent. Despite his accomplishments, Sibanda is conscious of the challenging course it’s taken for him to get here. That’s why he hopes to share his skills by tutoring potential students.For this potter, passion is the tool to triumph.

It was a very rare thing for any one to notice the horse that had been working for him. I have known ladies to do it now and then, and this gentleman, and one or two others have given me a pat and a kind word; but 99 persons out of 100 would as soon think of patting the steam engine that drew the train. This is the heart-warming story of Black Beauty, his masters, and his friends. Written in 1877 by Quaker Anna Sewell, partly to educate, partly as a plea that we should treat horses not as machines, but as creatures of flesh and blood and feeling. As she says: We have no right to distress any of God's creatures without a very good reason. Thanks go to the Mutasa brothers, Chenjerai and Mambakwedza, artists at The Harvest Centre at Hout Bay near Cape Town, for permission to use pictures of their wonderful horse sculpture made from pieces of broken machinery. Thanks, too, to Andy Forward of Horse Presence for permission to use their horse sounds, and to Richardemoore at FreeSound for the use of CW_Battle_Nearby, recorded at a Civil War re-enactment.
