It has been a good end to last year and start to this one.
The fruits of early efforts are coming off. We received and new Singer sewing
machine and an overlook machine for the tailoring and dressmaking dept. We
previously had 14 “butterfly sewing machines which are very old fashioned and
do not generate the quality needed to do income generating activities. The
samples we took to schools were rejected.
Now with the new machines we already have orders from two schools
for around 400 uniforms already. We will now need to get more of the better
quality machines (£300 each) to meet the demand and hopefully grow the income
generating side this in turn will help us get more equipment – a very positive
cycle towards self-sufficiency. If anyone feels they can support with getting more machines please contact me via the contact link on this blog.
