About Pardisan

Pardisan is a trust that has been created for the empowerment of women and local people through social enterprise. We will also educate about some social issues which are connected. Recycling, conservation, the environment, harassment, etc.

Well, things seem to be happening, slowly but surely. We are beginning to raise funds through donations and with Ann holding spoken English Classes at Little Angels High School in Udhampur. Through school we are also spreading the message about why Pardisan has been created and what we are doing and hoping to do.

We are beginning to form relationships with other school's. Education is the key to all the things we are wanting to achieve. Education and awareness.

Ladies have been knitting hats to sell. This is part of our social enterprise and women's empowerment. Ann is busy searching new idea's and busy teaching herself new crafts so that she in turn can teach others these crafts. So that women in need to earn a bit of money can make items at home for Pardisan to then go ahead and sell. One things Ann has discovered recently is finger knitting and through this has remembered her mum teaching her to french knit. There are many things that can be made from doing these 2 crafts, and they are so simple to master.
