We enable young people in Africa to build sustainable livelihoods, through supporting vocational training projects.

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a committed individual to work in the unique Workaid shop in Chesham. The potential is immense for the right person to really make their mark and demonstrate their talents.

Donated tools and equipment are refurbished by our volunteers and the higher value items sold in the Workaid shop with other items sent to vocational training projects and self-help groups, in East and Southern Africa. Funds generated in the shop help us to fund tangible projects in Africa such as the construction of vocational training workshops in rural secondary schools.
