Rudy van Dieman, who has partnered with Angels South Africa, an organisation based in Colorado Park, Mitchells Plain, will summit Table Mountain 365 times in 2022, to raise funds for building a community orphanage. Angels SA wants to purchase a house that will become a safe house for children. ‘’Farieda Moses, [Founder of AngelsSA] has been a role model to me since I knew her. She took us on a camp and we stayed in contact after that ,and we done various charity work together. Just her will, and her strength that I see in her - she wants to make such a big change, but don’t have the necessary tools, so it will take years to fund her dream, and I came up with the crazy idea to give it a year and do my part to raise those funds and build that house,’’ said van Dieman.

We were also joined Instudio by Douglas Newman – A midwife. Midwifery traditionally is seen as the care of pregnant women by women. It is reported that in the UK, the first men entered midwifery training in 1977 and by 1979 the "experiment" was deemed as being successful, and that "male midwives were generally acceptable to mothers, husbands, midwifery and medical staff. Today is the International Day of the Midwife. It is an occasion for every midwife to think about the many others in the profession, to make new contacts within and outside midwifery, and to raise awareness of what midwives do for the world. The theme this year is the World Needs Midwives Now More Than Ever as part of an ongoing campaign to highlight the need for midwives. Douglas explained more about a life of a midwife.
