Hlumelelisa Continues to Grow

Less than two weeks ago on 13 June we started a new training programme at the Medium B male section at Johannesburg Central Correctional Facility. Training is being headed up by one of Hlumelelisa's homegrown facilitators, William Moropana. After spending only a short time with our 14 new trainees, William reckons they're a super sharp group - we're looking forward to watching them grow over the course of the nine-month programme.

We're excited to have started training but there is a lot of work to undertake at our new location - our facility so far is made up of one classroom. Plans are in the works for planting outdoor gardens fas well as for construction of a shadehouse. Stay tuned for photos of our progress!
