A CRY FOR HELP

Beacon Valley pensioner is calling on DVs readers to help fix up busted wall

- BY MARSHA DEAN

CECILIA Kloppers, 74, from Beacon Valley in Mitchells Plain is in need of your help to fix a stukkende muur in her home.

In a story published by the Daily Voice on Monday, 30 June (Beacon of no Hope), Kloppers explained that she feared her council home would cave in because of the cracks in the wall.

Kloppers explained that she tried in vain to get the City of Cape Town to fix the wall.

There has been some movement in the case since, with Councillor Carl Pophaim, Mayoral Committee Member for Human Settlements, explaining that the property is externally insured by the City.

Rejected

However, Kloppers's insurance claim was rejected as an independent assessment revealed that the damage was not an insured event.
