About Lydia

Secretary

Hi everyone! I’m Lydia Chitekwe Nkosa, a wife of one husband and proud mom of two amazing boys. I’ve been part of the FAMSA Outeniqua family since 2015, working closely with the Department of Health District Office under the HAST program. I’m excited to now step into the role of Secretary for FAMSA Outeniqua.

I hold a BA in Healthcare Management and  Certification in Basic Counselling,  my heart has always been drawn to helping others heal and feel seen. I currently offer psychosocial support to victims of gender-based violence at George Hospital and Mediclinic, where I strive to bring comfort, compassion, and care to those in need.

Outside of work, I’m an avid runner and hiker! One of my proudest accomplishments is completing the Two Oceans Ultra Marathon, and I’m now training with the dream of conquering the Comrades Marathon someday. 🏃🏽‍♀️⛰️

If you visit our offices, you’ll be welcomed by my warm smile—because my passion is making sure everyone feels better leaving than they did coming in.

I look forward to continuing this journey of service, healing, and community connection with all of you. 💛
