The Little Bags from The Little House

In Laos, girls from rural areas often have to leave school before the age of 15, with few career prospects. Four girls are now learning sewing and life-skills at The Little House, a project run by Laos Solidarity through Luang Prabang Library Outreach Programme.

Just before Christmas, they were delighted to present John Williams at Luang Prabang View Hotel with 15 hand-sewn bags.

These bags, one of the many initiatives to reduce the use of plastic bags in Luang Prabang, were made with fabric woven by a local Lao woman. John kindly presented the girls with more woven fabric to help them on their way to self-sufficiency.
