Three years ago, Vaalrock Clinic in Brandfort was destroyed, allegedly in an act of arson. The fire resulted in medical equipment and medication being destroyed in the blaze.

The clinic provided health services for about 25 000 people. Following the fire, the provincial Health Department said it would spend R20 million to build another clinic in the area, but so far nothing has happened.

“The clinic has affected me because we have to walk a long distance to Marantha Clinic and we are not treated well at that clinic. We have children, who must collect medication, but we are forced to stay there the whole day,” says another resident. “We have put in the plans of the department, which are going to be in the new financial year, which is starting in two weeks’ time. So the plan is there it will be in the design stage and they will work it out. They must advertise the tender and must get the appropriate suitable companies to build within the shortest space of time.

“My feeling is that I’m not happy about this place. We are scared, particularly at night of being attacked by thugs, who smoke nyaope. They come in here and break. We are scared because of lack of security.”
