UNWANTED tools continue to flood into to Tool Aid Ringwood’s workshop at Forest Corner to be refurbished and sent to help those in need work their way out of poverty.

The group refurbishes tool kits to send off to third world countries to support apprentice training projects run by British charities, helping to give people an opportunity to learn a trade and earn a living wage. It has changed its name from Tools for Self Reliance to Tool Aid Ringwood (TAR) to avoid confusion with Tools for Self Reliance at Netley Marsh.

Anyone wishing to donate tools should call Laurie Dormer on 01425 475440.
