One of the primary objectives of this organisation is to support artisans in the poor communities of Africa such as Tanzania, Zambia , Uganda etc . by providing refurbished hand tools . Tools collected locally by us are delivered to the 'Camphill Community' in Milton Keynes where they are thoroughly refurbished , assembled into kits, boxed-up and despatched. This is a great project, as it not only provides obvious support for the African countries but also worthwhile employment for the Camphill Community . Their current needs are as follows:
