Do you have any unwanted tools which could make a difference to those less fortunate than ourselves? Unfortunately, not all tools are acceptable, please do not be offended if we have to refuse your offer. For ideas of wanted tools visit:

If you can help please contact Rotarian David Hartley on twamatcleerotary@gmail.com
About Tools With a Mission:
We usually send 18 containers filled with around 225 tonnes of tools every year, keeping them out of UK landfills. We invest in local people supporting their own communities through livelihood creating projects such as skills training centres.
We have sent tools to 17 countries across the world. Now we focus our efforts on livelihood creation in Sub-Saharan Africa.

A
Longer Journey, a Higher Cost: Help Us Empower More People in Africa
The journey of hope has become longer, but our
commitment remains unwavering. The recent crisis in the Red Sea has
dramatically impacted shipping routes, adding weeks to delivery times and
pushing shipping costs up by £2,500 per container.
Despite these challenges, we are extremely
pleased that in 2023, we shipped 20 containers, delivering 15,158
life-transforming tool kits and machines to communities across Africa.
This year, we are aiming even higher. We plan to
ship 22 containers, reaching over 17,000 individuals with the tools they need
to build a brighter future. This expansion will include our first delivery to
Malawi, the seventh poorest country in the world, and Burundi, currently ranked
as the world's second poorest. Rising costs shouldn't deter us from extending
this vital support.
