Touwsranten youth had a blast

2 December 2019

Touwsranten was the place to be on 28 November 2019. A stage, DJ, music, dancing, numerous stalls and give-aways made for a great World AIDS Day and B-Wise event. Numerous stakeholders came together to create something special for the youth on the day, and by the looks of it they were not disappointed. Almost 500 people entered the event.

Western Cape Government Health, George Municipality, B-Wise, LoveLife and She Conquers were the main organisers on the day. Youth, however, had the opportunity to visit many other stalls with valuable information such as the Seven Passes initiative, South Cape College, Ithemba Lobombi and many more.

The aim of the day was to highlight World Aids Day, get youth signed up on B-Wise and to discuss the She Conquers initiative. All of these are aimed at reducing HIV infections, teenage pregnancy and to uplift our youth to reach their full potential.
