Hi, I am a phD student doing some research on the management of xenophobic violence. I am looking for interviewing civil societies member who have been involved in the protection of refugees. Would it be possible to get in contact with you to know more about your work and the volunteers ? You can contact me by email.
I shall be extremely grateful for your answers.
Lydie C.

Hello,
I have been following the sorry situation. Can’t help until August as I am in UK. Please contact Church of Holy Spirit, Kirstenhof. One of the elders there, Simon, promised to visit Pastor Alain while I was away. Margaret Spicer

I am in Cape Town until 26th July and am happy to assist whenever needed before that. I work on refugee and asylum issues in the UK and have been involved for the past 4 years – as a volunteer, not paid professional. I am quite experienced in most aspects of the refugee process now and have done lots of research on country information to support peoples’ legal claims, mostly on the following African countries: DRC & Congo (Brazzaville), Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda, Angola & Cabinda, Zimbabwe, Niger, Sudan, Malawi, Togo, Nigeria. I speak very basic French and few welcoming words in many lanuages! I have contacts from amongst a network of people active on these issues in the UK who might be called upon for advice or for networking.
Contact numbers: 021 797 6946 OR 021 797 0108 & cell – 0745727076

I could do origami with some children at Soetwater. Prefer to be part of the team looking after the children. Only after this friday as I have no car at the moment.

I have a child’s wooden bed base and an extra length mattress to donate but don’t have a vehicle that can take it to Soetwater. I dropped off the mattress that goes with the bed base a few weeks ago with some other stuff. I also have children’s clothes which I have collected. I am in St James. I can drop off the clothes but f there is anyone who could fetch the bed and mattress, I would be grateful.

I can work any day during the week. I have a small vehicle and can get by with very very basic French. I work in TV production so my strongest skills are organizational, but I would be happy to volunteer in any capacity required. 083 267 6884
