On the eve of Ramadan (1st June – 10th June 2015) I will be insh’Allah travelling with the SKT Welfare Team to distribute Ramadan Food Packs to externally displaced Syrian families in the Turkish/Syrian border town of Reyhanli & surrounding areas.

This is my 2nd visit to this region having visited in October 2014, I can tell you the situation has not changed, many families are living in partially built homes with no windows or doors, some are living in tents & are in need of food & water – commodities we take for granted. I heard of 1st hand accounts of mothers mixing water with sugar for their babies because they couldn’t afford baby milk! Large families rationing the little food they had so that it lasts them for a month!

Just as many of us will be fasting in Ramadan, so will they. The only difference is that we will be doing Ramadan in our homes with our loved ones and in the presence of an abundance of food. They however will be struggling to afford basic items such as dates and water.

YOU can make this Ramadan easier on them. 1 food parcel costs £35 which will provide enough food for a family of 5 people. I will personally deliver your food parcel.

Thousands of Syrians are suffering and in desperate need of assistance. In Reyhanli alone it is estimated there are almost 80,000 externally displaced Syrians. No amount is too small or too big – it all adds up.

Syria's crisis is the biggest humanitarian emergency in our era. More than 1.7 million Syrian refugees have fled to Turkey for safety and now are struggling to survive on their own. They need our help
