R2.897bn allocated for social services
Cape Argus
|March 25, 2026
THE Western Cape has set aside R2.897 billion for social development in the 2026/27 financial year, as demand for support services continues to rise across vulnerable communities.
Tabling the budget yesterday, Social Development MEC Jaco Londt said the increase reflects a continued focus on delivering services “with kindness and care” despite mounting economic pressure.
“Our department has persevered through immense challenges, such as a grim global economic outlook, and increased demand in services that fail to match scarce resources,” said Londt.
The allocation marks a 4.98% increase from R2.76bn in 2025/26, with funding directed towards programmes supporting children, older persons, people with disabilities and those affected by substance abuse and violence.
