Tania Verdonk, SACC UK East of England chapter leader, said: “I’m excited that the time has finally come to relaunch our SACC UK Chapter.

“As a South African who has lived and run a business in Cambridge for the last 23 years, while maintaining strong family and business links with South Africa, this is a wonderful opportunity to serve both my countries.
