Re-Invention in 2011

Yizwa is pulling up it's socks and changing direction in 2011. Working from Nottingham Rd just became too complicated and it seems that Mpophomeni is the place for us. With the addition of Ntombenhle Mtambo to the team it sems we have the drive to delve into much more needy territory and make a difference.
We are currently writing up a proposal to transform a piece of wasteland in the middle of the township into a thriving permaculture garden and pop in spot so have lots of work ahead of us!
The municipality are happy for us to use the land as it benefits the community. Ntombenhle lives around the corner on the greenest street in the area and her neighbours are keen to volunteer and support this project.
We'll keep you posted.
From our wellies to yours.
