About Paarl East WCG eCentre

Paarl East WCG eCentre is situated in Chicago, Paarl East, in the Drakenstein Municipality.  

Paarl is well-known for its grape vines and the town is visited by many tourists throughout the year because of its beautiful landscape. In the apartheid era, former president Nelson Mandela was imprisoned at, and later released from, Victor Verster Prison in Paarl. The name has since changed to Drakenstein Prison.

This WCG eCentre is located in the local Thusong centre and caters to local disadvantaged communities, who use the internet services for work and school assignments. A community development worker is also available to assist community members at all times and there is assistance for disabled users.

The Paarl East WCG eCentre also assists local people to communicate more effectively with government and communities around the world, by providing access to e-mail, internet and various government services.
