A PROJECT to help people in Africa earn a living for themselves and their families has won the support of Chadderton and Failsworth Rotary Club.
The “Tools for Self Reliance” project offers practical help to people in Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana, Zambia and other parts of Africa.
It also gives them skills and drive coupled with tuition and the tools to help make a difference to their lives.
Equipment is restored by volunteers in the UK before being distributed to Africa.
If you have any old unwanted tools and can help the cause, call John Blakeman on 0161-633-3037.
