Lydia’s dream machine
6 August 2010
Tools for Self Reliance has been working with various partners, including the University of Sussex and Rotary Clubs, on a project to support seamstresses and carpenters at a vocational training centre in Lilongwe, Malawi.
Earlier this year BBC cameras followed one of our sewing machines on its 8,000 km journey from a Winchester living room to a training centre in Lilongwe. The resulting film reports were screened on the BBC’s South Today.
