We are incredibly proud to announce that 10 of our caregivers have successfully completed their Introduction to Palliative Care course with APCC!
Hosted by
Helderberg Hospice, this training equipped them with essential skills to provide compassionate and specialized care to our residents. A huge shoutout to Sr. Thandi, who put them through their ranks and ensured they excelled in both their exam and practical assessments!
This training was made possible thanks to a generous donation received by Helderberg Training Centre, which we are utilising to upskill our employees and enhance the quality of care we provide.
Thank you to everyone who played a part in this journey—together, we are making a real difference!
The team that benefitted: Bernadette Wessels, Cindy Wessels, Vuyokazi Vavi, Bongiwe Combo, Nombeko Mqanduli, Roche Cloete, Patience Ntsholo, Eunice Ntsholo, Monique Visagie and Deidre Samuels

Valentine’s Day at HSFA Silver Oaks Lodge Started with a Heartwarming Surprise!
Love and kindness filled the air as our residents were treated to a delightful Valentine’s surprise, thanks to the generosity of ATKV Paarl Vallei! Thoughtfully wrapped Valentine’s boxes, brimming with delicious home-baked biscuits and accompanied by heartfelt personal messages, were lovingly delivered to each resident.
Moments like these remind us of the power of community, compassion, and small gestures that make a big difference.
A heartfelt thank you to ATKV Parel Vallei for spreading love and warmth this Valentine’s Day! Your kindness has made this day extra special.

Just like the delicate flutter of a butterfly’s wings can create a seismic impact on the other side of the world, our volunteer’s small acts of kindness can send ripples of compassion and care throughout our community.
Your selfless dedication and generosity make a REAL difference in the lives of those we serve. We’re grateful for your tireless efforts and commitment to helping others.
Keep spreading your wings and inspiring positive change!
A big THANK YOU to our amazing HSFA volunteers! We held a lunch to honour our volunteers and to show our appreciation.
A special thanks to
GERATEC for making this occasion even more memorable with their butterfly themed dessert with intricate details.
