 In 2024 we ran two bricklaying courses, one in Grahamstown/Makhanda for Makhana Brick and one at Klay near Cape Town. We were introduced to a phrase we hadn't heard before: 'job vulnerability', the reality that if you have low skills even if you are employed in a low level job, your employment is vulnerable, whereas if you have some skills you can be more certain of keeping a job. So, with this in mind we are pleased to be able to report that the job stability of our trainees in Grahamstown were improved. At Klay we had a classroom (brick shed) full of beginners, many of whom have been asked to send CVs to Klay, so the future is looking brighter. They will also be mentored by the Fisantekraal Centre for Development. Five potters have found jobs A quick peek inside Meshack's pottery in Kenton on Sea where we sponsored five apprentices all of whom have found jobs. Bravo! Welcome 2025In 2025 we have much to look forward to:
