DFW Fire & Rescue NPC and De Leeuwenhof Estate Hotel both joined hands to assist and support international " Sport Hero and Idol" Jason van Porppal with his visit to Paarl on the 24th.
Paarl, 26th May 2026
So asked for, the DFW and " de Leeuwenhof Guesthouse" immediately offered their services when the request came for accommodation and transport.
The young man, started his journey in Uganda to promote state boarding and his efforts would find it's final destination in Cape Town. The humble young man, drew very positive attention and his efforts suddenly gathered great momentum .
His second last stop would be Paarl and we all did make a super happening come true and showed real Paarl enthusiasm and support. The local population were present in huge numbers and all went very well.
The young hero received a warm meal, a hot shower and a warm bed and was admired and extra pampered by the Leeuwenhof staff, to gain strength for the final stretch to Capetown.
What a Weekend!
We thank all our local partners and media specialists to so suddenly and spontaneously come on board and help bring this happening of joy and light to the communities.
