We aim to provide an encouraging and supportive environment where members can learn from each other and improve their writing skills in an enjoyable and social setting. We offer a forum for the exchange of ideas and information, while making time for friendships with fun, humour and social events.

We are a small group of enthusiastic writers and we welcome people who share our passion for creative writing to join us to share your efforts and ideas, improve your technique, or just to enjoy the readings of the other members’ work in a creative atmosphere.

We invite you to be our guest and come along to the next meeting. There, you will learn about the Circle and share in our news and plans. If you enjoy yourself, you could become a member. Aspiring writers and interested parties, at any level of experience and skill, are welcome.

Phaphama SEDI (PHAPHAMA)

AssociationFinder

Phaphama SEDI is a non-profit organisation that was started in 2014 by a small group of dynamic UCT students. The aim of Phaphama was to increase the entrepreneurial capacity of small businesses in the Khayelitsha and Philippi area by connecting them with a consulting team of senior UCT students.

Each entrepreneur is teamed for the entirety of the programme with three student consultants. These groups, comprising of diverse academic backgrounds and skill sets, mean that each business owner will receive consistent and specialised attention throughout the year, in addition to the overarching skills-building training they will receive in the module workshops.

To date we have worked with over 100 small to medium enterprises and over 300 student consultants. In doing so, we labour tirelessly to make success a reality for our entrepreneurs, at the same time we seek to equip our consultants with practical skills. We want student consultants to experience what it is like to work with the local business community.
