Clay and ClayTile

We have two new partners. Two more opportunities to make life better for young people in South Africa, to give them a trade and some self-confidence and self-respect, to feed a family and to give a positive role model to others.

Working with clay

We will be supporting six apprentices at Juja Clay who will learn how to work with kaolin and ....

... make lovely things with it. They will also be mentored in business skills. Juja clay has a track record of helping young potters who then go on to run their own businesses.

Claytile

In November Ade will be running a two-week course in the basics of bricklaying for Claytile in the Western Cape. This is part of of Claytile's social outreach programme and they will be recruiting a dozen or so young people who would not otherwise have access to training from the local community.
