Today was an amazing, but heartbreaking day for me.
Today my beautiful friend Najma donated her first lot of “ADIL’S LEGACY PACKS”.
These where donated to Royal Blackburn Hospital A&E .
The packs have been mainly funded by Blackburn UK trust with a little help from Maggie’s stillbirth legacy.
These packs are lovingly put together by Najma & her children in memory of her son Adil.
They are specifically made for Muslim babies and children.
These packs contain ….
A hat (for dad)
A prayer Mat (for dad)
A perfume (for dad)
Prayer beads (for mum)
A head scarf (for mum)
A white shroud (for baby)
Camphor block (for baby)
A book (for the parents)
All presented in a memory bag for the parents to keep.
I went to Najma with this project at the end of November and today was the 1st ever donation and we have more to come these next few weeks in hospitals throughout the UK.
It has been an absolute honor and a privilege to be apart of this & I’m so happy to be working with Blackburn UK Trust.
