HOFMEYR NEWS - The Martin Dreyer Change a Life Academy recently visited Hofmeyr. This academy changes the lives of talented youths in KwaZulu-Natal's Valley of a Thousand Hills, one of South Africa's most impoverished and socially challenged regions.
Multi-sports champion Martin Dreyer established the academy in 2008 and has trained members to become champion canoeists and coaches.
Martin has also extended the academy's reach to greater numbers of children in the valley by introducing a school running league and a high-performance mountain biking team.
The academy is currently biking through the Eastern Cape deep rural platteland to determine the current status of youths in this area and to raise funds for their projects.
The group spent the night at the Victoria Boutique hotel in Hofmeyr.
