Basket weavers in Bolgatanga
We work with two weaving communities in Bolgatanga that are supervised by Simon and Dorcas who also run a charitable association supporting women’s health and education within the communities. The weaving of the lamps has been a great challenge allowing the weavers to earn more and develop their skills. All artisans are guaranteed good fair pay and we help them to develop their business alongside our own.

We commit 10% of our online sales to initiatives in the Weaving communities. In 2021 we focused on:
- Financial help with the creation of a weaving centre
- Training in making new products for disadvantaged communities.
- Christmas bonuses for all weavers
