musiekgroepe het die gaste vermaak en vyf rolstoele is aan begunstigdes uitgedeel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die dag, wat op 3 November in die Thusong-saal in Grabouw gehou is, is deur die Theewaterskloof-munisipaliteit gere\u00ebl en raadslid Denzil Jacobs van Grabouw het ook op die dag \u2019n eerbewys ontvang toe hy as die ambassadeur vir mense met gestremdhede erken is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hermanus Times<\/em> het al verskeie artikels oor Denzil gepubliseer oor wat met hom gebeur het en die voertuig wat aan hom oorhandig is (7 September 2022, \u201cKen jou dorp: Denzil Jacobs\u201d en op 21 September \u201cSpesiale voertuig vir gestremde raadslid van Grabouw geskenk\u201d). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Volgens die burgemeester van die Theewaterskloof-munisipaliteit, Mary Liebenberg, is Denzil nie net \u2019n kampvegter vir mense met gestremdhede nie, maar ook die mens na wie inwoners met gestremdhede moet gaan as hulle vrae of klagtes het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Denzil, wat baie dankbaar is vir die eretitel wat hom te beurt geval het, s\u00ea daar is steeds baie tekortkominge wanneer dit by toeganklikheid vir mense met gestremdhede kom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paaie is nie baie gebruikersvriendelik nie en van die dorpe het nie eens sypaadjies nie, en dit maak dit baie moeilik vir mense wat van rolstoele gebruik maak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vervoer is volgens hom ook \u2019n probleem vir mense met gestremdhede en dis nie net in Grabouw waar dit \u2019n probleem is nie, maar ook in van die ander dorpe wat deel van die Theewaterskloof-munisipaliteit is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Volgens Denzil is dit gewis iets waarna die munisipaliteit moet aandag gee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die dag het ook die geleentheid vir ander gaste \u2013 di\u00e9 sonder gestremdhede \u2013 gegee om te voel hoe dit voel om aan \u2019n rolstoel gekluister te wees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die burgemeester en ander ampsdraers het hul bes probeer om rolstoel-netbal te speel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die gaste was dit eens dat dit \u2019n positiewe dag was wat meer moet gebeur om ander bewus te maak van mense met gestremdhede.
