News & Events
Fabric face masks for sale in Gauteng
This new year and decade - 2020 - has disrupted our way of living in a manner we did not forsee. Social distancing for one, is now a global necessity to actively stop the spread of the COVID19 virus. The facial mask or masking of the face has become a daylight accessory of necessity overnight.
An extremely high turnover in the demand for facial medical masks has given rise to criminal disruption in medical facial masks being stolen from hospitals.
One of the recent articles I read on facial mask theft is a theft on Tues 17 th March, a report on a theft of 50 thousand protective face masks intended for medical clinics in Cologne, Germany.
The report continues across various cities across Germany reporting theft of medical clothing, sanitisers, gloves, disinfectants, respirators from children’s intensive care unit looking after many young cancer patients.
Upcycle snuffle mats are now available at the Upcycle landfill avoidance shop situated at 158 Long Road, Greymont in Jhb.
In case you don’t know, a “snuffle mat” is a material feeding mat for dogs. (Apparently cats love them too!).
Basically, a snuffle mat stimulates a dogs natural foraging instinct by mimicking the hunt for food in grass & fields, stimulating their noses & brains to earn their meals.
You hide treats around the mat, and then your dog uses his nose to find them, getting a tasty treat as a reward. A dog’s sense of smell is 50 times stronger than humans. Your dog sees the world through his or her nose!
