Last November, brick manufacturer Klay asked if Khanya could run an electrical training course in Cape Town. We put the feelers out for volunteers and up stood Michael (Mick) McNally. Mick has over 50 years’ experience as an electrician. When our Chair, Ade, gave him the opportunity to go to South Africa and pass some of his knowledge on to disadvantaged young people, he jumped at the chance.
The course will run for two weeks this month ( alongside another bricklaying course provided by our Chair, Ade) and will be for both novice and existing electricians.Some will gain a new skill making them more employable and some “up skill” to make their existing jobs more secure. Khanya will be providing a basic electrical tool kit to each trainee. Each kit costs £45. If you are moved to sponsor a kit, Khanya and a trainee would be very grateful! Please donate now at: https://www.peoplesfundraising.com/donation/khanya Because of the generosity of people like Mick, and companies like Klay, these courses cost Khanya just £95.00 per trainee, a great use of Khanya’s resources. None of this is possible without the people who give so generously to Khanya.
