About me / About business or organisation:

I started a project in Uganda Africa in 2010, it started in a dusty little village called Mufibira - we build a little work shed painted in blue and officially called it "The Little Blue Shed". It was created to learn, train and grow for women in poverty/difficult situations. I work in the blue shed for one year and then had to return back to Australia. I made a promise to continue to help and keep the shed alive. I do the markets in Sydney, while still communicating with the women on the product development side. The little blue shed products are made from 100% recycled paper. The product range includes hand bags, purses, jewellery and now we moving into home wears.

I am now looking for new ideas/partnerships to expand our little project into something huge and fantastic.

Thanks for reading
