Be proactive
Don’t wait for an incident to happen to you or your loved ones. Prevention is the primary objective of the Strandveld Plaaswag to keep our members safe. Crime is increasing within South Africa and SAPS is under increasing pressure with little resources to be able to deal with the volume of crime reported in both urban and rural areas.
A community run association
The Strandveld Plaaswag is a community run association driven by one goal; To do our part in making our community a better and safer place for all, both locals and visitors to the area. We strive to build productive relationships and make a positive impact with all of our endeavours.
Where we focus
Focusing on the town of Baardskeerdersbos, and surrounding farms towards Elim, Pearly Beach, Uilkraal and Stanford, the Strandveld Plaaswag work with and along side surrounding Plaaswag groups, security companies, SAPS and emergency services to reach our goal of a safer place to live and visit.
Run by the members
The Strandveld Plaaswag is run by a committee that is elected for and by the members. This is a purely voluntary based committee that work together so the Strandveld Plaaswag can achieve their goals.

For medical emergencies, CMC will stabilise the member at no additional cost and transport them to the nearest hospital if required.
Transport costs will be covered by the members private medical. For those members that do not have a private medical aid, they can join the CMC plan at a reduced rate, this will cover any future transport costs.

Some radios also have a panic button, which is also monitored by CTS.
