About us
Aanhou-Wen is a work and care centre for mentally and physically handicapped adults in the Helderberg Basin which was established in 1987 with 4 members. Since then it has grown to a maintainable organization with 65 members between the ages of 18 an 66 years, who attend the centre daily.
Around 60% of the members are from underprivileged communities and are transported daily to and from Aanhou-Wen with transport provided by Aanhou-Wen vehicles. Aanhou-Wen is a non-profit organization.
Aanhou-Wen does not discriminate on grounds of race, gender or religion as we believe that each person is unique with status and worth, who deserves unconditional recognition and respect. At Aanhou-Wen we strive to develop each member’s potential to the point where he or she can function as independent as possible in the world.

Janie B. asked:Hi, eveywhere I go I see paper recycling boxes in offices. I’m trying to find such a service fir out office, but the biggest service provider is not interested in our office, as it is too small. I’m amazed that there are so many obstacles for an office trying to be green. If you know of anyone local that collects recycling paper, please post here!Ina T. replied:https://www.facebook.com/153293208121902 Aanhou-Wen Work & Care Centre for Adults with Mental & Physical Disabilites take recyling to earn extra income. Please make contact with them - maybe they have someone willing to come pick it up from you??

Lynette P. asked:Can somebody tell me who the new recycling company is? If they are not collecting, i will just stop recyclingJudith C. replied:They are still collecting weekly in Heldervue. Although I've emailed CoCT when after 3 days it was still thee. The collection arrived within the hour. I think people need to keep on letting them know when its not collected. Failing that take it to https://www.facebook.com/153293208121902 Aanhouwen Work and Care Centre for Mentally Disabled Adults who recycle.
