I held my wedding celebration here and its a great place if you do not want to hold your wedding in a home but you dont have a big budget for a place. I give all the credit though to the Lady who did our deco!

Somarelang Tikologo does a good job collecting waste for recycling. It shows how waste boxes and other materials may be turned to good use without being thrown away. it also fosters good relations with other recyclers. Meanwhile it serves tea and cakes in its café. Definitely worth a visit.

One of a handful of recycling points in Gaborone. The staff is trying so very hard to make a difference. Distell and Kgalagadi Breweries are involved as sponsors but staff need more help to make a real difference.
