  • The artist Janice Tchalenko throws a pot in her home studio in south London. With past creation on shelves behind, she smooths the sides of a vessel as it turns on the wheel. Tchalenko studied at Putney School of Art and Harrow School of Art then taught at Camberwell School of Art. She specialized in undecorated domestic stoneware and developed a reputation as a highly competent thrower. In the late 1970s she discovered she also had a talent for decoration and started making high-fired stoneware with bright and colourful designs. She became a tutor at the Royal College of Art in 1981 and this was shortly followed by two exhibitions - one with John Hinchcliffe the textile designer and the other as a one-woman show at the Blum Helman Gallery in New York - that established her as one of the top British potters.

Murad Khane, the ancient centre of Kabul is undergoing a massive regeneration thanks to the Turquoise Mountain Foundation. The foundation was set up by Steward Rory Stewart, the man who’s life has inspired a Hollywood biopic starring Orlando Bloom. He walked across Afghanistan with his dog, governed a province in  Iraq , tutored Prince William and Harry and was asked personally by Prince Charles to undertake the project of regenerating the heart of the old city centre. Two years later, the project has galvanized the local community who have all been offered work. The organization has cleared some 20,000 tons of rotting garbage from the streets, built a primary school, a clinic and restored several of the finest courtyard homes to near-mint condition. With an eye for capacity building Stewart has also developed a school for traditional crafts,
