Pippa Hudson speaks to Dr Pieter van der Merwe, one of the founding members of the Atlantic Eye Foundation on World Sight Day. The foundation was set up to address two key issues – the pressure to provide services in the public sector, and the declining opportunities for training in ophthalmology.

Lunch with Pippa Hudson is CapeTalk’s mid-afternoon show.

This 2-hour respite from hard news encourages the audience to take the time to explore, taste, read and reflect. The show - presented by former journalist, baker and water sports enthusiast Pippa Hudson - is unashamedly lifestyle driven. Popular features include a daily profile interview #OnTheCouch at 1:10pm. Consumer issues are in the spotlight every Wednesday while the team also unpacks all things related to health, wealth & the environment.
