We use kitengye for the skirt and top section and a contrasting block colour for the mid-section. The mid-section has a slit in one side for the attached belt to slip through and you simply pull it until it fits.

Our workshops also includeteaching English, basic first aid, health and nutrition , which are taught byour valued international volunteers and are imperative to improving the livesof the locals we work with.
Within Edirisa UK’s craft project, we are committed to ensuring a fair andstable business relationship with our craft groups who make a variety ofproducts from raffia such as the basket wear, jewellery and tablemats (as seenin this catalogue). We purchase the materials in Kampala and then sell themto the group for a small fee.
We are constantly researching innovative ideas so the women can create newproducts, keeping it fresh, interesting and challenging, adding to their skillsand knowledge. All profits are fed back into the groups through the varioustraining programmes such as tailoring, knitting, English, health and nutrient.
