TFSR Cymru aims to improve the lives of African artisans & families by providing them with quality refurbished recycled tools & training. Our charity collects old and unwanted hand tools and sewing machines from all over the UK and sends them to grass roots community groups in Africa. We presently concentrate our overseas efforts in Tanzania.
We gratefully receive many gardening, vintage and specialist tools that are not required in Africa – but they still have value. They are refurbished to a high standard by skilled volunteers in our workshop and are sold online, at many events, and from our shop in Crickhowell, South Wales. This income ensures that we are not wholly reliant on donations or grants and we are proud to be mostly self funding in this way. Please watch our video introduction to see how we work.
