Miracle baby Junaid was born six months after his mother, Naneen Akter Nazma,
survived the devastating Rana Plaza factory building collapse in Savar, Bangladesh. Tragically he will never know his father as he died in the disaster. ActionAid supported Nazma with medical costs during her pregnancy.
One year after the Rana Plaza factory building collapse in Savar, Bangladesh, ActionAid is helping many of those left injured or vulnerable to restart their lives and is part of the campaign seeking compensation for the survivors and families of those who died. ActionAid has worked for a number of years with garment workers in Bangladesh, supporting women to demand better pay and safer conditions. The Rana Plaza tragedy reinforced why this is so important.

Inside the factory was pretty bare, asbestos removal was going on and all signs of its former use appear to have vanished.
The potato flour factory "De Centrale" has been abandoned since 1964 and is still standing straight which is pretty rare in The Netherlands since all they do is build build build in this country.
The Custard Factory is now home to Zellig.
Six-bay centre of 1902 with buff terracotta arches and windows, ornate lettering and a rich shaped gable with a ship in tilework. Parapet cut out like a pie-crust, waiting for custard.

A proper chocolate factory.
"An important industry in the town is Cadbury's chocolate factory. The J.S. Fry and Sons business merged with Cadbury in 1919, and moved their factory in the centre of Bristol to Keynsham in 1935. As Quakers, the factory was built in a 228-acre greenfield site with social facilities, including playing fields and recreational sports grounds. Called Somerdale after a national competition in 1923, Keynsham Cadbury is the home of Fry's Chocolate Cream, the Double Decker, Dairy Milk and Mini Eggs, Cadbury's Fudge, Chomp and most importantly, the Crunchie. According to Cadbury employees (or 'Chocolate Welders' as they are locally known), the Crunchie Machine makes enough bars to stretch to the Moon and back every week".
mmmmmmmmmm.... Crunchie. *Gargling drool*
