Change for the better
Emily Cummins was four years
old, her grandfather gave her a
hammer. She loved using it, and started
to learn how to make toys from old things
that nobody used any more.
When she was a teenager, she thought
a lot about making inventions to help
other people. Emily's other granddad had
an illness called arthritis. He had a lot of
pain in his hands and fingers. One day,
Emily saw that he had problems getting
toothpaste out of the tube. She made an
invention that helped him with this, and
won the Young Engineer for Britain Award
for her toothpaste dispenser.
A few years later, Emily learnt about the
situation in some African countries where
women and children often walk many
kilometres a day to get water for their
villages. They can only carry one bucket
a time, and they usually put them on their
heads. Emily's invention is a simple water
carrier. It's made of wood, so it's easy to
repair. For example, the 'wheel' on the
water carrier is made from branches of
trees. It makes it possible for the women
to transport up to five buckets each time.
They don't have to carry it on their heads.

in Zambia, Namibia and South Africa who
use it to keep milk, food and medicines
cool.

Emily is now a young woman. She is
the winner of several prizes for her
