Episode 080 People Of Impact: Navigating Umrah with SEND Children

In this episode of 'People with Impact', Aisha Abdul Hadi interviews the trustees of the Yusra Foundation; Quayuma Rahman and Fahima Begum, who share their personal experiences with SEND children and the challenges faced during their Umrah pilgrimage. They discuss the foundation's mission to provide support and assistance to families with special needs children, making the pilgrimage more accessible. The conversation highlights the lack of provisions for SEND children in the community and the importance of inclusion and support for these families. The Yusra Foundation aims to bridge this gap by offering tailored assistance and plans for future initiatives, including Islamic education for SEND children. https://www.yusrafoundation.org.uk
