Along with seven other physically-impaired champions, athlete Tracy Mckay has proven that living with a disability is no barrier to achieving your goals, with the recent attempt of breaking of a world record.
In October 2020, famed mountaineer Saray Khumalo and breast cancer survivor Cindy van Wyk attempted to break the Guinness World Record for the most funds raised during an 8-hour cyclothon – a stationary cycling event – and they did it all in the name of digital literacy.
Supported by Momentum Multiply, Planet Fitness and Vuma, and thanks to the tireless efforts of 138 cyclists, #Spin4Literacy raised over R704 000 for iSchoolAfrica, a digital literacy programme that empowers rural schools through the installation of digital libraries. The #Spin4Literacy initiative is currently undergoing Guinness World Record certification for the most funds raised during an 8-hour cyclothon.
Afrosoul
It s been over five years since she left the SABC 1 soapie, Uzalo.
And now she s recently joined the cast of the second most-watched drama, eHostela. She plays Nellie, a sassy, street-smart girl living with her single father Vovo, played by Ernest Msibi.
Singer and Actress Thandeka Zulu (28) is inspired by Nellie’s independence and couldn’t be more thrilled about her new role.
“Nellie is a fearless and brave girl. She is independent not by choice but because of her upbringing without her parents. She turned herself into a bad girl and a hustler.”
Thandeka is happy to be back on screen playing another major role.
