Story
This event will be a fun filled adventurous experience for our female fundraisers! We invite our participants to gallop their way through one of London's iconic fields. The Prophet Muhammad (peace e upon him) encouraged women to horse ride. Horse riding is beneficial for physical, emotional, and spiritual growth too.
This women-only horse-riding event is for a small group of sisters (Max 15). Must be over the age of 10 years - minimum height 145cm. The day will not only consist of horse riding but a picnic too. The participants will be taken to a secret meadow where they will view some wildflowers and wetland. We endeavor to soak up the sun on the green fields and enjoy some delicious sandwiches.
During the picnic one of the MH Staff will speak about the virtues of giving charity in Islam and the importance of fundraising. They will also expand on the project this event is fundraising for (charity project MotherKind). Right now, 830 mothers a day are dying from preventable causes (WHO). Our Motherkind maternal health campaign provides women in Afghanistan and Somalia, two of the most high-risk countries around the world, with comprehensive pre-natal and post-natal care.
