We are drawing to a close in our training year
at LifeLine/Childline Western Cape. The personal
growth courses are in full swing in Cape Town,
Khayelitsha and in Athlone, and a counselling
skills course is in progress in the mornings at
the Cape Town centre.
For those currently busy with personal growth
courses, the next counselling skills courses begin
in Cape Town, Khayelitsha and Athlone in September
and October.
Our 2008 training brochure will be finalised
in November, and will be available to download
from our website then. Please visit our website
at www.lifelinewc.org.za and click on the link
at the bottom of the page that reads “Training
and workshops”. This will take you to details
of all the training courses we offer and, in November,
will provide all the dates for the 2008 courses.

| LifeLine/Childline
Western Cape was established in Cape Town in 1968
and has, since then, been providing ongoing telephone
counselling, offering immediacy and an intimate
means of communication to those needing to talk.
The need for an organisation committed to the prevention
of child abuse became increasingly apparent and
in 1995 Childline became a division of LifeLine
Western Cape. On average, the crisis lines receive
around 4,500 calls per month.
With offices in Cape Town, Wynberg, Khayelitsha,
Guguletu, Bishop Lavis, Mitchell’s Plain and now
in Athlone, LifeLine/Childline Western Cape has
grown considerably and now employs 113 members
of staff. The majority of the organisation's staff
members work in the area of HIV/AIDS counselling
in the clinics and day hospitals around the greater
Cape Town area.
