In this episode we meet Juliet Robb of Olive Tree, a charity that buys products from crafts people in Palestine and then sells them in Scotland. The money provides the artisans with a living and any profits made from the sales goes to support charities in Palestine.

Juliet first thought about working with people from Palestine after a trip to the Holy Land. At the end of the trip, the minister said to her, "so what are you now going to do!" She now has a successful organisation that sells quality, jewellery, embroidery and ceramics that involves about 20 volunteers, all run out of her house!

I hope that, like me, you'll be inspired by this courageous woman.
