Directions

Julaybib Project Muslim nonprofit organisation. Raising awareness about disabilities & special needs in our community.

07/10/2026

Raising awareness around SEND is so important in helping create greater understanding and ensuring children and families receive the support they need.

SEND can affect not only children, but parents and families too, which is why understanding, support and access to the right resources are so important.

Every child and family deserves to feel understood, supported and heard. By increasing awareness and understanding, we as a community can help to make sure no family feels like they have to navigate their journey alone.

We’re growing our team and looking for new Trustees to join the Julaybib Project!

We’re passionate about creating a more inclusive community for children and families affected by disabilities and special needs, with a particular focus on raising awareness and support within Muslim communities.

We’d love to hear from people who share our values, want to make a positive difference and can bring their experience, ideas and perspective to help shape the future of the charity.

Think you could be a great fit?

What is the Julaybib Project, and what do we do?

Julaybib Project co-founder, Natalia, talks about the work we do to support families raising children with special needs.

From working alongside local councils and other organisations to helping families have their voices heard, we’re here to remind families that they are not alone.

We’re building a community where families feel supported, heard and understood - including through events like our upcoming coffee mornings, where families can come together, share experiences and find support.

Some stories are especially close to our hearts, and Maryam’s is one of them.

As the daughter of our co-founder, Natalia, Maryam’s journey is part of the story behind Julaybib Project. From facing a life-changing diagnosis before she was born, to finding support, understanding and hope along the way, Maryam’s story shows just how much the right support can mean to a family.

Today, Maryam is a happy, determined 10-year-old who attends mainstream school, loves swimming and singing, and continues to enjoy life to the fullest. 💜

Her story is a beautiful reminder that a diagnosis does not define a child or their future. With the right support, families can find hope, confidence and a sense of possibility.

We hope Maryam’s story also reminds other families that support is out there and that they’re never alone on their journey.

A huge thank you to Peterborough Telegraph for sharing Maryam’s story and helping shine a light on the importance of support and understanding for families raising children with additional needs.

What is Julaybib, and how do we support families? 🤍

Julaybib was created to support children and families with SEND, particularly within communities where disability can sometimes feel misunderstood, isolating or difficult to talk about.

Our work is centred around practical support, awareness and creating a stronger sense of community for parents, carers and young people.

We aim to provide:

* Support and connection for parents and carers
* Inclusive activities and community events
* Disability and SEND awareness
* More accessible and inclusive Islamic learning
* A stronger voice for families when engaging with local services and organisations
* Opportunities to bring families together, share experiences and feel less alone

A big part of what we do is also about changing attitudes encouraging more open conversations around disability, challenging stigma and helping mosques, community organisations and wider services become more inclusive.

In this video, we explain a little more about who we are, why Julaybib exists and the support we hope to continue building for families.

Because every child deserves to feel included, understood and supported. 🤍

Yesterday we hosted another Julaybib coffee morning, bringing together parents, carers and local organisations including Peterborough City Council’s 0–25 Disability Social Care Team and NHS CPFT.

For us, the most valuable part was simply listening.

Hearing families openly talk about the challenges they face every day really puts into perspective how important support and community are. It also showed how many services and opportunities are available that people simply don’t know about.

That’s exactly why Julaybib exists. We want to help raise awareness, connect families with the right support and create a community where nobody feels like they’re facing things alone.

If you or someone you know is living with SEND, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch, and keep an eye out for our next coffee morning! 💜

🌸 Julaybib Project Breakfast Gathering 🌸

Alhamdulilah! What a beautiful way to start the day! 💜

Today, the Julaybib Project welcomed our wonderful parent carers and their families for a delicious breakfast at Chocoberries Peterborough.

We enjoyed amazing food and heartfelt conversations about the many challenges we face as SEND mums, as well as celebrating the little and big victories that keep us going.

Being a parent carer can be exhausting, and it’s easy to forget to take time for ourselves. Days like today remind us that we all deserve a little treat—a tasty meal, a drink, and the company of friends, who truly understand this journey, every day and every night.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and made today so enjoyable. We are so grateful to have each and every one of you as part of our project. 💜

Here are just some of the lovely comments we received:

💬 “Thank you Natalia for wonderful breakfast and company. ❤️”

💬 “Thank you Natalia. The breakfast was absolutely delightful, many thanks ❤️”

💬 “Thank you Natalia, the breakfast was amazing, it was nice meeting up. 🫶🏻”

💬 “Thank you for breakfast. It was a very enjoyable experience for my mum and daughter. We all enjoyed the meal, thank you.”

Thank you all for your friendship, support, and for making our community such a welcoming place. ❤️

We can’t wait to see you at our next Julaybib Project event! 🥰
