Eskom will invest about 5 million RANDS to renovate the Marapong Community Health Centre in the Lephalale local municipality in Limpopo, the parastatal said in a statement today.

 The project was a public-private partnership initiative between Eskom, the Health Department, the Lephalale local municipality, and mining company Exxaro.

Construction activities were scheduled to start in April and would be completed by the end of August, Eskom said.

Eskom subsidiary Roshcon was contracted to carry out the work and would ensure that the local community were employed. Eskom also donated wheelchairs and HIV/Aids care kits to the Marapong HIV/Aids Care Group.


Eskom had also invested in excess of 8.6 million RANDS in a paediatric mobile unit for primary health care which included eye testing and provision of spectacles, general health, and dental care for children in primary schools.
