New product available through Scoop and Scales - Ammar's Syrian Soap.
Ammar and Loulou, the parents of one of the Syrian refugee families in Macclesfield, have produced a range of soaps using natural oils, similar to those they used to make in Damascus.
They would like to know if there is a market for these authentic hand-made products, and they have arranged to sell some of their bars at the Scoop and Scales shop in the Heritage Centre on Roe St. At the moment they are looking to just cover their costs, and they will not be making a profit.
The family, which includes 4 children, has been in Macclesfield for just over 4 years after being forced from their home during the civil war, and spending 3 years in a refugee camp in the Lebanon. They want to earn a living and be independent – so please have a look at what they have made. The varieties available include avocado, coconut and jasmine.
