In 1954, a group of Dominican nuns arrived in Ahmedabad to start a hospital. Ahmedabad was an industrial city producing textiles, but when the mills began to close many men lost their jobs and women became the sole earners. As a result, the nuns organised a sewing/embroidery centre, where women use traditional skills to make handicrafts. The women at St. Mary`s also have access to medical help, savings schemes, cooking classes, and scholarships for children. Traidcraft has been working with St. Mary`s for 21 years.
