Mayor Xhakaza, Fix Our Swimming Pools and Sports Facilities in Katlehong

We would like to have all sports and recreation facilities maintained and renovated. Facilities such as:
We would like to have all sports and recreation facilities maintained and renovated. Facilities such as:
- Swimming Pools
- Huntersfield Stadium
- Katlehong Art Centre
Most of these facilities have turned into hazards and are on the brink of becoming drug dens.
Why is this important?
Our children have no way to entertain themselves, and this is why we find ourselves with a rising drug problem. We need to keep our children busy and off the streets. We need them to enjoy sports and other activities outside of school. The poor maintenance of our available facilities has prevented our children from engaging in sports or developing healthy hobbies.
To keep children off the streets and away from drugs and alcohol, they can develop into the best sportsmen and women and represent the country at the highest level once they have the space to nurture their craft. Art Centres play a vital role; without them, we deprive our children of a healthy and holistic development.
Please sign this petition so we can come together and fight for our children's right to grow up in safe environments that make it possible for them to discover talents and hobbies, as well as nurture them.
