The schools are for girls aged between 15 and 20 to enable them to continue their studies in English, maths and health and gain skills to help them to earn money or set up their own small businesses. There are courses in typing, tailoring, weaving, batik, tie-dying , catering, and hairdressing. Girls, who left school after 6 years primary education and sought unskilled work in the cities, are flocking back to school to gain skills and have a chance to study and work their way out of poverty. They have the full support of their parents many of whom had no opportunity to attend school and are often unable to read or write.

After successfully completing the course in dressmaking at Buipe Vocational School, three girls have been given hand sewing machines to start up their own business in their villages. By helping these young women we are helping the families of the future. We hope to continue this support of other students.

Two generous benefactors, including Man Group plc. Charitable Trust, have agreed to fund the building and furnishing of the Sawla Vocational School, which started in April and will be finished by September.

We now need funds to buy typewriters, sewing machines, cookers, looms, scissors and materials to get the courses started. Ghana Education Service pays the teachers and trainers. There are already 200 students enrolled at Sawla vocational School and another 250 in waiting. The school will give the young women of this isolated area of Sawla a real chance to help themselves and their district have a better life
