In a drive to ensure residents’ safety and generate awareness that help is only a button push away, Rand Aid’s Inyoni Creek retirement village is running a lollipop drive to encourage residents to always carry their SOS panic button with them. When residents visit the office, if they have their panic button with them, they receive a lollipop, explains Inyoni Creek manager, Jenny Tonkin. Pictured are Inyoni Creek social worker Shaun Victor with resident Noreen Strand and Sister Jana Bezuidenhout.
