Sponsor a bed & change a life campaign…
——————— TAMZIN FLOR
A very easy way to help. ONEWAY’s over all expenses total R10k per person per month. Oneway’s short fall is R6000 pp/per month. We have created a very easy way for the community to help. Every individual is able to contribute any amount towards a bed.
Full sponsor = R6000
½ sponsor = R3000
1/3 sponsor = R2000
¼ sponsor = R1500
SHOULD RECOVERY ONLY BE AVAILABLE TO THOSE WITH THE FINANCES? We want to have that not be the case.

THERE IS A NEW EPIDEMIC – ADDICTION TO OVER THE COUNTER MEDS. Click here:
Here is a sneak peak …
“Prescription or over-the-counter opioids, when abused, are just as dangerous as many illegal drugs. The dangers are addiction, and overdose. Once a user is addicted, it’s difficult to stop using – stopping suddenly can lead to restlessness, vomiting, diarrhea, pain, and chills. Overdose is a very real risk, because just one high dose can depress breathing and lead to a coma or even death.”
Know symptoms of opioid abuse
- Changes in sleep, mood, appetite, or weight
- Tremors, seizures, or slurred speech
- Changes in behaviour or personality, including unusual emotional outbursts, lack of motivation (which often leads to trouble at school or at work), or becoming secretive about their behaviour
- Drug use also increases the likelihood of injuries and accidents
- Doctor-hopping to get multiple prescriptions, or lying to your doctor about your drug use or level of pain
- Asking other people to get medication on your behalf
- Using more, or more often, or taking higher doses to get the same effect that a lower dose used to bring.
SHOUT OUT TO:
The Metro Police for keeping us safe all 12km. Dala for the amazing sponsor of supplies making it possible to get our message out loud and clear. All the partipants who stood up for this cause and supported us on this WALK. The ONEWAY guys who facilitated, participated & created the perfect vibe.

Many of us are into “wellness” – we exercise, eat organic, do Pilates, etc etc – however some are also downing a bottle of wine (aka poison) Taking diet pills, calming meds, steroids, and more, every day! What are we thinking! Now as we ditch the drinking and drugging, in an attempt to clean up, we get to have more time on our hands. Time to reevaluate our lives.
It’s Time to create a ‘Wellness Toolbox.’ …….Take a look below:
