Hope and Knowledge Cycling Club will take us from London to Margate on an epic 75 mile journey on the 24th March 2018.

I have never done such an event before so it will be a daunting but exciting challenge. In the process I hope to raise awareness and much needed donations for an excellent and deserving cause.

England's first public institution for deaf children, started in London in 1792. The school opened it's branch in Margate (August 1876) and later on, moved the entire operation from London to Margate.

Al-Isharah was founded on the premise that deaf children born into Muslim families were severely marginalised from the Muslim community. We found often the communication between parents and children as bare minimal. As you can imagine, it's very difficult for the first generation migrants to learn English and then to further learn the British sign language.

Al-Isharah is refusing to accept this and providing various services to ensure this is not a continuing trend. We are aspiring to become the organisation that ultimately aids people in such predicaments in every major aspect of their lives.
