Often it was the case of replacing the cylinder or mending leaking pipes, but one or two of the sites needed major work and it was wonderful to be able to do this with the funds donated by The Body Shop Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>Our very grateful thanks to The Body Shop Foundation for their support.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa is suffering a major drought, our PlayPumps are often the only source of reliable water for miles around. \u00a0We appeal to others to help us maintain PlayPumps and also install new ones, ensuring life giving water for these rural communities.<\/p>\n<p>sandra.hayes@playpumps.co.za : +27 11 543 7920 or +27 82 704 0370<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Body Shop Foundation donated a new PlayPump and maintained a further 13 PlayPumps over the 2014\/2015 year. &nbsp; Philippa wrote saying I have been reading about the drought in South Africa &#8211; heart breaking.
