SHUMBA FACTS:
Made by Gogo Olive
Gogo Olive was set up in late 2008 as a response to the huge unemployment problem in Zimbabwe (it currently stands at over 80%), at a time when conditions in the country were particularly difficult. As well as creating employment for local women the aim is to give them hope as they have the opportunity to use their craft skills to build a future for themselves and their families.
As each one is hand made there are variations.
- Each product comes with its own swing tag containing its personal name and the name of the lady who knitted it.
- Handmade from a mixture of wool and synthetic fibres.
- Filled with a polyester stuffing.
- Wash by gentle sponge cleaning.
SHUMBA FACTS:
- A male lion sleeps in his den and the females go out to hunt for food!
- A group of Lions is called a Pride, they are the only cats that live in groups.
- A Lion would be defeated by a polar bear if they had a fight!
- A Lions roar can be heard from 5 miles away.
