NSRI EMERGENCY
OPERATION CENTRE (EOC)

This morning our CEO, Dr Cleeve Robertson, braved a chilly Monday morning at the Camps Bay tidal pool to swim for 67 minutes to raise funds in honour of Mandela Day. While he was lapping the pool, the head office staff donned their rubber gloves, grabbed their black bags and headed off over the rocks and along the beach to collect all the litter in the surrounding area. It ended with a welcome cup of hot coffee. 20160718_080046 20160718_081720 20160718_083912 20160718_085945 20160718_082931
