The Highway Hospice extends its sincere thanks to Trellidor for their generous donation of Trojan retractable security gates, installed across several key areas of our facility, including the Home Care Unit, Education Department, Workshop, and Kitchen.

We are especially grateful to Wayne Halgryn, who expertly managed the project from initial measurements through to final installation.

This meaningful contribution has significantly enhanced the safety and functionality of our premises, and we deeply appreciate Trellidor’s support.

We can confidently vouch for Trellidor’s high-quality workmanship and reliable security products, which are well-suited for both residential and commercial applications. To learn more about how Trellidor can assist with your security requirements, please visit: https://trellidor.co.za/

We would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to The Heal Kitchen (facilitated by Vidisha) for the generous meal donation provided to our patients at Amaoti and Umlazi. The photographs shared capture both the Amaoti and Umlazi groups enjoying this thoughtful gesture.

"The meal was thoroughly enjoyed by our patients, and we are truly grateful for the time, effort, and care that went into its preparation. It was evident that the food was prepared with love, bringing immense joy and comfort to those who received it." - Nokubonga Ndlovu, Head of Social Work at The Highway Hospice.

Your contribution has made a meaningful difference in the lives of our patients, and for that we are profoundly thankful. Once again, we extend our sincere gratitude for your generosity. As the saying goes, “Umuntu Ungumuntu Ngabantu” - a person is a person through other people.
