HE Reem Abdel Rahim BinKaram
The 21st January 2019 was a day I will never forget.
I finally completed my scholarship programme with the Badiri Academy, NAMA, and the School For Social Entrepreneurs London and Cornwall, UK.
I presented my graduation presentation and received my certificate.
Many thanks to Lina Hamdan, Kylie Dickenson, Jo Van Osch (my amazing mentor), Amy Babor and Sally Heard for their kind words of support and encouragement.
I praise the Almighty Allah subhana wa'tala for giving me the strength and courage to complete the course.
Thank you to my husband Faisal for supporting me over the past 10 years.

Sabeena Ahmed and The Little Fair Trade Shop in the United Arab Emirates
This month I continued to heal from my procedure (January 2022) to alleviate the pain in my left shoulder.
I celebrated Fairtrade Ramadan.
I continued to participate in my 10th Six Items Challenge with Labour Behind The Label.
I participated in the Ikea Lagom Live Get Growing Session.
This months session was titled Get Growing.
I enjoyed learning about get growing at home, composting and the activity slides.
Many thanks to Ahmed for creating and organising the presentation and providing refreshments.
Hello, Assalaam Alaikum, peace and blessings!
Thank you for taking the time to visit my Six Items Challenge 2022 blog.
I'm Sabeena, a social entrepreneur, fair trade campaigner and educator.
So here I am for the 10th consecutive year participating in the Six Items Challenge with Labour Behind The Label.
This blog has taken a long time to complete due to a horrible bacterial eye infection I've had since February.
This year the challenge commences 2nd March - 27th April 2022.
Happy 20th Birthday Labour Behind The Labour team!
Much love
Sabeena
