Hello Assalaam Alaikum peace and blessings everyone,

Thank you for dropping by. :)

This is a very late message for Labour Behind The Label team and all the Sixer's who completed the challenge.

Sadly, I'm struggling to shake off this strange skin allergy.

I've had food allergy tests and fortunately I'm not allergic to the main food groups but am still tolerating, hives, burning and itching on my hands and palms.

I managed to jump in a taxi last week and attend a social entrepreneur showcase at Middlesex University Dubai.

I've attached a photo with Senior lecturer Shanthi Raman.

The green and white traditional Pakistani party suit I'm wearing is not ethical but was purchased as a birthday present by my dear friends Sunita and Faiza.

The green scarf I've draped around me was a fairtrade gift from my friend Joanna who was visiting from Poland.

She purchased it from KoKo World.

I envisage recording my vlogs this week (fingers crossed).

I look forward to participating in the Six Items Challenge 2019 Insha'Allah, God willing.

Hopefully I'll be healthier...

Take good care

Keep supporting Labour Behind The Labour.

Congratulations once again to all the Sixer's.
Warmest regards
Peace and blessings

Hello Assalaam Alaikum peace and blessings everyone,

Its been a challenging 5 weeks for me.

I'm still struggling with this annoying skin allergy and haven't been able to upload any news videos.

I'm hoping to record some today.

For those interested to learn about fast fashion and the effects it has on garment workers, the environment and the planet I can recommend.

Hope to speak with you by the end of the challenge.

Best regards and wishes to all the Sixer's.
