OUTLine has found new premises, in the heart of Ponsonby. The Auckland-based GLBT phone counselling service is moving into the Pompellier Centre in Three Lamps, on Monday 12 July. OUTLine has been temporarily based at the New Zealand AIDS Foundation's head office, after the head lease at its longtime premises in downtown Auckland was suddenly terminated a month ago. Chairman Peter Martin says although the new offices are much smaller there are big improvements in access, as it's on the Link bus route, with parking and other facilities. Martin is thanking the NZAF and its executive director Rachael Le Mesurier for providing OUTLine with temporary accommodation and storage over the last month. "Their staff have, without exception, been very welcoming and generous hosts. We had our recent AGM there and also our last board meeting - they have been wonderful," he says. Transgender support group GenderBridge is also moving to the new Three Lamps premises. The new address for GenderBridge and OUTLine from Monday 12 July will be: Pompellier Centre Suite 5, 3 Cowan St, Three Lamps, Ponsonby. See the map below:
