Celebrating Mandela Day


If you’ve recently visited your favourite High Discount store, you would have noticed the oversized swatch of knitwear with a lovely ombre colour displayed in our windows. This window display was lovingly created in collaboration with women in our community, knitting together these incredible pieces, which will be donated to families in need. Read more about the project here.

Mignon Hattingh, who took charge of the project, and her team have reworked these blankets into single bed covers, and will be distributing the blankets among community members in the Mitchells Plain area. This is our way of celebrating Madiba’s legacy, and giving back to those in our community who need it most.

This project has affected the lives of many individuals and families in need, and we feel privileged to have been involved in such an amazing initiative.
