It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of one of our valued members, Mr. Botsang Puomore, who was laid to rest on the 25th of September 2021. Botsang was behind our flawless graphic designs and contributed immensely to our services, which is a legacy he leaves behind. He joined the First-Aid Counselling family in September 2020 and has since applied his immense talent and creativity to his job. He was a cheerful and an uplifting person and he will forever be missed.

We will always cherish the beautiful memories and lovely work of Botsang Puomore.

Thank you,
First-Aid Counselling Family
