Barefoot Solutions supports Middlesbrough Tools Workshop, which forms part of a small local charity, Tools for Self Reliance.
Based at the Langridge Initiative Centre in Berwick Hills, the workshop works with people, some of whom have disabilities, to restore and renovate hand tools. The tools are either sold, often to local community initiatives, or else are formed into trade-specific kits that support people in developing countries begin new enterprises.
Barefoot has organised a 'Women's Workshop,' which works specifically with women to support them in gaining skills in tool restoration in a relaxed and informal setting. The group meets on Friday mornings. (Please contact us if you'd like to find out more).
