The Polystyrene Association has appointed Patricia February as Project Coordinator for its rapidly growing Breadtags for Wheelchairs Project.

Patricia will be based full time at the Association’s offices in Stellenbosch and will be responsible for providing administrative support, managing the queries from collectors and coordinators as well as oversee the logical process of getting the polystyrene collected to recyclers who are based around the country.

She is no stranger to administration and office management, having worked in the hospitality industry overseas and in recruitment prior to joining the Polystyrene Association at the beginning of April 2018.

“I am very grateful and excited about this amazing opportunity. Although it is a completely new and different environment for me, I am finding it to be very interesting. I am looking forward to working with new people and building good relations with everyone involved,” she says.

Patricia has been married for 11 years and is the proud mother of Lyle (aged 10) and Mia (aged 3). In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her friends and family and describes cooking as her passion.
