Medway Volunteer Workshop Medway Volunteer Workshop collects and refurbishes tools and sewing machines which are then sent to Africa to help people start their own business.

Charity Incorporated Organisation Registration No. 1205002 Medway Volunteer Workshop in Kent refurbishes donated tools and sewing machines on behalf of Tools with a Mission (TWAM). TWAM equip newly-trained craftspeople in Africa with a tool kit or sewing machine so they can earn a sustainable living. Help someone else in a practical way by giving your unwanted tools, computers and sewing machines a new lease of life – and reduce landfill. Items can be dropped off at MVW in Chatham and the Tools with a Mission van collects across Kent. Medway Volunteer Workshop (MVW) welcomes new volunteers and financial support.
