Several NGOs like Lifeline and SADAG will be present to provide support and resources, alongside trained counselors walking with participants. The YouMatterWalk is a celebration of life and hope, striving to support those affected by suicide and promote mental health awareness in the community. to hear more about this initiative, Sibongile Mofokeng welcomes Christia in studio to discuss this walk.
