The patients can leave the ward and come here to relax and read a magazine away from the dreary hospital environment. This space is a sanctuary for both staff, patients, and their family members.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Images\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_f721a4b4\">\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/12077\/0e83438d421a4c55a285a3263774375e.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/peoplespost\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/7b0dc2118061496dab6a82bd81304456.jpg\" title=\"The revamped bric and brac store.PHOTO: SUPPLIED\"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">The revamped bric and brac store.PHOTO: SUPPLIED<\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>She explains that prices are affordable as most patients come from disadvantaged backgrounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solomon adds that the Friendly Shop was established a few years ago to help the organisation become more sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt serves as a skills hub for patients on their recovery journey. We teach them food preparation, customer service, administration, stock take, and how to become baristas. We have trained 12 baristas but could only employ two. We are also engaging with chef training schools because we want to send patients for training.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-gardening-pre-loved-goods\">Gardening, pre-loved goods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>She explains that they also started an organic garden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe teach patients to do organic gardening. We grow spinach, broccoli and other vegetables. We provide the kitchen with some of the vegetables and the rest we sell at affordable prices. Every cent that we make goes back to fund and sustain our projects.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solomon appeals to people to donate pre-loved items. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_51211610\">\n<div class=\"text\">\u201cWe always welcome pre-loved goods. Anything that we can sell. From clothes and bric and brac to children\u2019s items and non-perishable items. We give food parcels to patients when they are discharged.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Solomon says they are grateful to all the sponsors who came on board and gave the shop a much-needed facelift. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe shop was a typical charity shop and we needed to change the face of the shop. It is now a space that people can enjoy. We didn\u2019t have a coffee lounge before. An interior designing company came on board. A project manager volunteered his time to oversee the project. All the furniture was donated by donors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She encourages the public to visit the shop and explains that the shop is open weekdays from 09:00 until 14:00. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back on the organisation\u2019s 30-year journey, Solomon says there is still a stigma attached to mental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the World Health Organisation, one in every eight people in the world live with a mental disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-priority\">Priority<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Solomon encourages people to make their mental health a priority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe stigma around mental health still exists. People go to see a doctor for a checkup, but when you tell them to take care of their mental health immediately there is hesitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTaking care of your body cannot exclude your mind. Your health cannot exclude your mental health. Be conscious about taking a break. The most common mental health challenges are depression and anxiety.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charlyn Goliath, chief executive officer of the Valkenberg Hospital, says she is grateful to all the donors who made the refurbishments. She adds that the store serves a dual purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is part of a reintegration process for our patients. This is the space where they do activities that are part of their rehabilitation such as going to the shop, budgeting, socialising etc and the second part is for our staff as part of own wellbeing. As staff, we have a place to go and energise and relax in an environment away from our normal workspace. It contributes to staff wellness.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Goliath says for the past three decades the FOV played a crucial role at the institution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe partnership started after a need was identified. We are not able to provide and support patients and staff without the support of FOV.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To celebrate its 30th anniversary the Friends of
