Mission
To improve security and provide a safe environment for all the legal residents in
our area of responsibility, to further promote and establish a close community spirit
of friendliness, co-operation and awareness which would enhance our quality and
standard of living and in doing so make RiverWel the area of choice.
About RWRA
The RiverWel Residents Association (RWRA) was constituted in July 1997 to serve
the interest of the community within the area bordered by Jim Fouche, JG Strydom,
Cornelius, the N1 highway and Without Roads. Within the borders are approximately
420 houses, an area of newly constructed townhouses, and a natural river/greenbelt.
RWRA is mandated to carry out all legal measures necessary to reduce crime and achieve
the objectives set out in our mission statement. RWRA works in close co-operation
with the SAPS, CPF, and municipal authorities to help achieve our objectives.
