Don't wait until life gets quieter to start living. Your dreams deserve a place in the life you're living right now.

So here's your reminder, as much as it is mine:

Book that trip. Visit that place. Try something new. Take yourself out. Make memories. Tick off those bucket-list dreams. Give yourself permission to experience life beyond the roles you fulfil for everyone else.

You are allowed to be a woman with dreams outside of motherhood, marriage and responsibility.

And perhaps the most important reminder of all…
Don't lose yourself while taking care of everybody else. You deserve a life that feels like yours, too. ❤️

To every woman who is constantly giving, supporting, organising, nurturing and showing up for others — this is your reminder to show up for YOU, too.

Who said South Asian girls don't play tennis? 🎾

We're out here breaking barriers, building confidence and creating opportunities for our girls to try something new.

At The DEEN Centre, it's about more than sport. It's about belonging, friendships, confidence and showing our girls what's possible!

Pendle and Burnley girls, we're just getting started! 💪

📣 Tag someone who you think might want to join us!

Thanks to Donna at Street Games, Burnley Tennis Club and LTA - Tennis For Britain for helping make this happen!

BIG THINGS ARE COMING, WATCH THIS SPACE!

This is about connection, conversations and company. Yes the weather might be a little wet, but is that going to stop us on this female only adventure? No! Some of our youth group have joined weekend residential in Chester!

Watch this space to see how we battled the storm and created some beautiful memories on the way.

It is truly heartening to reflect on the significant progress achieved during this busy week. Through dedicated efforts, over fifty families were successfully connected with vital resources and essential services. Providing consistent access to food parcels has also played a crucial role in ensuring stability for those in need. Furthermore, offering face-to-face support has made a meaningful difference in navigating complex issues regarding benefit issues. Our commitment to fostering this level of community care is something that we have always been passionate about!

Onwards and upwards! Watch out for next weekly round up 👍

I will be sharing real life stories like this to ensure that the struggles of the helpless within our community are heard far and wide.

I have over 10 years of real life stories similar to this one and each one is just as heartbreaking as the last one.

As someone who works in the community and has supported thousands of women over 2 decades, enough is enough.

This problem is getting worse. Its heartbreaking. We should be doing better! Where is the compassion for the vulnerable women/ families within our community? The least thing you can do is share your knowledge of support services available with those that need it the most. Making dua that WE all do our bit to help our community get the support it needs and help people heal.

Insha'allah!
