Some Facebook groups have also asked that members of the community who have extra space for horses that need to be evacuated leave their details in the group for those in need. Anyone who wishes to offer a safe place for affected horses, can send a message in the Facebook group Noordhoek Wetlands Riders. Took a drive up chappies to see the extent of the fire. Pretty dramatic scene and looking close to houses. #noordhoek pic.twitter.com/32bIc6kPeO — Malu Lambert (@MaluLambert) January 27, 2020 Image: Facebook/SANParks Related Posts South Africa’s history at the World Travel Awards 27 May 2022 By now, you’ve probably caught wind that the World Travel Awards voting has opened and... read more Samsa suspends oil bunkering after spill in Algoa Bay 27 May 2022 The South African Maritime Safety Authority (Samsa) has launched an investigation into an oil spill... read more SA no longer accepts Covid-19 vaccination certificate without QR code 27 May 2022 According to the Department of Health, South Africa no longer accepts the 'white card' received... read more PREV ARTICLE NEXT ARTICLE
