Iqela elisebenzayo leVCUF lizimisele ukwenza umbono, iseti yeenjongo kunye nezindululo eziza kuqhubela phambili amahlathi asezidolophini kunye nolawulo lwemithombo yendalo kule minyaka ilishumi izayo nangaphaya.
Abantu abangama-25 abaquka iqela elisebenzayo baquka awona magosa esizwe anemibono nahloniphekileyo kamasipala kunye namagosa karhulumente, iinkokeli zesizwe nezengingqi ezingenzi nzuzo, abaphandi, abacwangcisi basezidolophini, kunye nabameli besiseko kunye noshishino.
