Dr. Paul van der Merwe, President of SAVA, underscores the need for cooperative efforts across health disciplines to effectively manage diseases and enhance global health security.

Freedom Day is on the horizon again and this year The Langa Run4Freedom celebrates its 3rd year along with our country’s 30th year of Democracy on Saturday 27th of April. I was wondering whether you would be keen to interview Aubrey Issacs, the organizer leading up to the Run4Freedom to encourage runners among Good Hope listeners to enter this year and to bring along family and friends to enjoy the special experience and the great township vibe. The idea behind this event is to bring together runners from across the city in the spirit of peace and togetherness, to celebrate Freedom Day and all that it represents.

The Langa Freedom Day Run 2023 was a huge success and we are expecting thousands of people to make their way from all parts of the Western Cape to the Langa Sports Stadium this year on Freedom Day, to participate in the 3rd Street Run through the township. Known for the special experience it provides for runners and supporters to come together on this national holiday in the spirit of peace and unity - it is also a highlight for residents, who line the streets to cheer runners on, spurring the community spirit of the day.
