Sonya Winner Studio Ltd is a member GoodWeave, which aims to eliminate child labour and to improve working conditions for adults. When you buy one of our modern area rugs or runners you are supporting educational programmes for weavers and their families.

As a GoodWeave certified business, we are committed to raising awareness of the child labour issue and to giving former child slaves a second chance.

Direct Involvement

We and our rug weavers also support GoodWeave programs, which aims to heal and educate those children who have been exploited by changing the underlying circumstances and values in their homes, villages and the international business community that ultimately led them away from the school desk and onto a work bench.
