Our impact on the community
This is a good example of how counselling helped a woman whose baby died during pregnancy:"As dramatic as it sounds, I will always believe that counselling saved my life. I was so depressed and just wanted to be with my baby, that I nearly gave up, but the support and genuine care that I felt from the counsellor made me believe I could get through it - words will never be enough to explain this."
