This clinic is set to operate on Friday afternoons initially, with the goal of expanding its services over time. This development is part of a series of youthspecific health initiatives piloted by City Health, starting in Khayelitsha almost two decades ago.
Over the weekend, a tragedy unfolded in the Delft area of Western Cape as four people were shot in an abandoned building.
