OUR PROGRAMS

Meet our Programs Manager

Our Health and Wellbeing Programs are led by Ruan Uys. With a strong commitment to improving the health and wellbeing of marginalised communities, Ruan believes that education is the most powerful tool to achieving this.

As a peer with lived experience, he understands the unique challenges faced by those living with HIV and is dedicated to providing support and guidance to help others navigate their journeys.

Ruan’s expertise and friendliness mean our programs are not only informative but empowering so that you can build confidence and improve your overall quality of life.

TESTIM0NIALS

Our clients gave us their trust, and this is what they have to say about us

The program was perfectly set for our needs and abilities and totally friendly and welcoming. It was great that it caters for beginners and progressed slowly.

I would have no hesitation in recommending these programs to others. It helps restabilise social skills and being able to work with others.
