The Fashion Trust Arabia is a non-profit initiative that supports up-and-coming fashion designers from the Middle East and North Africa region since 2018.
On top of an annual prize which each year crowns an emerging talent in the world of fashion, The Fashion Trust Arabia has now evolved with the creation of FTA Pulse, an online platform to exclusively highlight Arab creatives.
The Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) is a unique tree planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022 which invites people from across the United Kingdom to “Plant a Tree for the Jubilee”.
Everyone from individuals to Scout and Girlguiding groups, villages, cities, counties, schools and corporates will be encouraged to play their part to enhance our environment by planting trees during the official planting season between October to March. Tree planting will commence again in October 2022, through to the end of the Jubilee year.
With a focus on planting sustainably, the QGC will encourage tree planting to create a legacy in honour of The Queen’s leadership of the nation, which will benefit future generations.
By inviting everyone to plant considerable numbers of new trees throughout the country, the QGC seeks to highlight the significant value of trees and woodlands as nature’s simple but highly effective way to clean the air we breathe, slow the impact of climate

Maintaining one’s hygiene in precarious conditions is almost impossible. Yet it is one of the keys to human dignity. The Hygiene Bank was created by people who were moved by the hygienic conditions of adults and children in need.
They collect care products, nappies, soaps, towels, and tampons, all the daily products necessary for good hygiene. The collection is done via schools and via drop off points. Visit their website for more info if you wish to volunteer
