LifeLine invited Gender DynamiX to do a presentation as part of their volunteer training. Board Member and media liaison, Robert Hamblin represented Gender DynamiX during this training session.
“It is tough to tell people about Trans Issues in 20 minutes but it was an introduction to them and a door to our website and services. This way they know where to direct people with these issues when confronted with them. I showed one of my films to try and appeal to them on a more personal level too. Several people approached me for more info after the event ” said Hamblin.
LifeLine offers anonymous, confidential telephone counselling 14 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year on a toll-free line. They communicate with clients in all of the eleven official South African languages.
