The communities in the Manenberg Police Precinct were addressed at an open street Imbizo on Friday 13 June in Heideveld to reach as many residents as possible and cultivate a relationship of trust and encouraging them to confide in the police.

This Imbizo was held before the long week-end by the Manenberg police as a community engagement drive to combat gang violence and foster trust within the Manenberg community.

The Manenberg Precinct is divided into three sectors and they are: Sector 1 - Manenberg, Sector 2 - Surrey Estate, Primrose Park, Druiwevlei, Tambo Village and Eljieskraal, Sector 3 - Heideveld, Welcome Estate and Vanguard Estate.
