DriveTime Show Podcast 28-02-2024 - SEND Children | Nearness to Allah

Join Tariq Bajwa for Wednesday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing “SEND Children” and “Nearness to Allah”

SEND Children

The number of children with a special needs (SEND) diagnosis is increasing but the waiting times for a child education plan are struggling to meet demand. What is the impact on SEND
children and families? How can we ensure each child is given a fair and level playing field
when it comes to attaining education to the best of the ability? Join us as we discuss the need to never leave anyone behind.

Nearness to Allah

How do you establish a bond with God if you've never seen him? How do you believe He's even listening? Islam is a religion which believes in a 'living God'. Not only does God
listen but He also answers prayers. Join us LIVE as we discuss the true way to establish a bond with our creator and make the most of our worship.
