FROM THE DESK

The situation in Pakistan at this moment requires urgent

intervention as floods are creating havoc in the region with

number of displaced persons on rise. Under the current

situation we have decided to cancel the Eidul Azha event and

are looking for suggestions to raise funds. We will just have a

BBQ for which the venue will be announced in next issue. At this

moment the tentative date is 12thOctober. For those members

who have requested information regarding Qurbani we have

included the relevant organisations on page 3.

Currently working on the acquittal of 17th August grant, it is a

pleasure to announce that a special event will be held on 15th

November as part of Seniors Week, which is organized and

implemented by seniors in the community in which we expect

both Indian and Pakistani friends to participate. If you know of

any participant who should be invited please do send us their

contact details so a formal invitation can be sent. At this

moment we are waiting for the city of Stirling regarding the

venue and Mr. Sami Shah to confirm his availability.

Finally to all those who are now leaving or are about to leave for

Hajj ( muslim pilgrimage to Mecca), best wished from all of us.

Remember us in your prayers.
