KNYSNA | PLETTENBERG BAY NEWS & VIDEO - Cape Tonian cyclist Brendan Hurner and his team from Motion for Ladles stopped over in Knysna this morning as part of his 1 000km charity cycle ride from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town in support of feeding scheme Ladles of Love, making 5 000 sandwiches at Oakhill School.
Brendan embarked on his ride in PE on Monday 24 August, and had made his way to Plettenberg Bay by yesterday afternoon, before setting off for Knysna this morning, 300km into the cycle.
He and the Motion for Ladles team joined hands with Sasko, Oakhill, and Rotary Knysna to help make and distribute 5 000 peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Oakhill elicited help from its teachers, staff, and Grade 9 learners. With tables, hands, cutlery, all sanitised and everyone having donned their aprons and hair nets, the teams set out to tackle the task at hand at 09:30.
Less than 1,5 hours later they had managed to clear through all 500 loaves of bread having made 5 000 sandwiches for communities in need. The team from Rotary picked up all of the sandwiches and distributed them far and wide, from Brackenhill right through to Rheenendal. Brendan is raising money for the Ladles of Love organisation through BackaBuddy.
