How Big is the Big Society? Canary Wharf Supplementary School is facing the axe and the Big Society appears nowhere to be seen. Education, Education, Education was the mantra of Mr Blair, when he came into power in 1997; education would be the key to closing the gap between the richest and poorest in our society and bringing about levels of upward social mobility. Arguably, we have gone a long way into achieving this, alas, there is still a long way to go, particularly for the average child living in a less than average es-
tate in Tower Hamlets, a borough where educational attainment is low and income inequality is vast. A striking and indeed unfortunate fact is that Tower Hamlets has the highest rate of child poverty in London. It is the second most deprived borough in London and is the third most deprived borough nationally. And 79 percent of children come from low income families. Education for our city‟s under-achieving children is the difference between living a life on the dole or in a low paid job and living in a
council estate passing down the curse of poverty into future generations and being a working professional enjoying some of the finer things that our city has to offer. Canary Wharf Supplementary School (CWSS) aims to address some of the inequalities faced by the many children in some of our most deprived boroughs. The school is a grassroots organisation, led entirely by volunteers from all ethnic and religious backgrounds and ranging from city professionals to local businessmen. It is open to those of all faiths and none and is targeted at 11-16 year olds. CWSS gives additional support for students in core subjects of English, Maths and Science. Although the school does not teach Islam as a subject, the school is founded and operates on traditional Islamic principles of altruism, goodwill and civic participation. The model for the school relies on young professionals from the local area providing educational support as well as acting as role models and mentors for young students who are feeling disaffected and struggling with their studies.

World Habitat Day 2010 4th October 2010 On the UN World Habitat Day on 4 October 2010, Muslim Aid has urged governments to honour their collective commitment to provide their people adequate shelter as part of creating more equal and just societies. Muslim Aid also reiterated its firm resolve to help communities that have lost their homes due to natural and man-made disasters through its relief and development projects by providing temporary shelter, permanent housing and access to clean water. A Spokesperson for Muslim Aid said: “This task of providing shelter and housing requires both national and international efforts and practical solutions, especially for people affected by crisis and natural disasters. On this day we remind the international community that 640 million children in developing countries still live without adequate shelter and around 55 million people last year were affected by extreme weather conditions across the world. Simple measures such as providing transitional shelter or good drainage systems can save peoples lives.” Muslim Aid is currently implementing shelter and construction programmes in many countries across the world in order to make people‟s habitat safer and comfortable. It has also completed flood mitigation projects in Indonesia to improve protection against future flooding. These projects have allowed communities to flourish and children to build a life filled with security and peace.

How Big is the Big Society?
Our honourable Prime Minister is proud to talk about his Big Society, where he claims that communities should take over from the government to provide some of the services traditionally provided by the state. The Guardian (22 June 2010) in „Interview with Mr Big Society‟ sets out the vision for the Big Society as “One, building the capacity of citizens. Two, encouraging national collective activity. Three, a constant negotiation between the boundaries of civil society, citizen and government." All this sounds great and but does the evidence really give me that warm fuzzy feeling? Unfortunately I‟m still waiting. CWSS certainly has a great number of hugely talented volunteers, but we need space, books, materials and other such things that help small charities like ours achieve their objectives. In the spirit of the Big Society, we approached some of the Corporate giants in Canary Wharf but despite their remit to engage in 'corporate social responsibility', and our efforts in contacting them several times using different media (letters, phone calls, face to face meetings, invitation to the CWSS launch party), disappointingly, not a single penny has been donated. We are only looking for some support or a small contribution which they could easily afford but don‟t feel inclined despite the Wharf being on the wealthiest financial hubs in the world. Surely, this is not the Big Society that our dear Prime Minister is advocating. Arifa , 16, a student of ICSS (the sister school of CWSS) recently received her GCSE results and commented “I am very thankful to ICSS as it has provided me with the opportunity to receive additional support for my studies. I feel that my GCSE grades have been boosted by the tremendous level of support and encouragement I received from the school and will be forever thankful to it. I am now ready to move onto the next stage of my studies with the knowledge that I have some amazing networks behind me”. Arifa‟s story is not a unique one for both CWSS and ICSS and you will find her words chime with many of our current and former students. For the success to continue, we don‟t require much, but what we do require has the potential to change the lives and future of many of our city‟s children and sometimes the most disaffected and disengaged youth. Maybe one day, these children can also aspire to working in one of those tall glass buildings and reaching out to the communities those less fortunate than themselves. Is the Big Society big enough to change the story of some of the most under-achievement and social exclusion to one of a virtuous cycle of prosperity? We‟ll leave this one to society to decide. To learn more about ICSS or find out about how you can contribute, please contact: Sahera Abbasi on Sahera.abbasi@yahoo.com or see website: www.icss.org.uk http://www.endchildpoverty.org.uk/london/child-poverty-in-london-the-facts/tower-hamlets-43/

MEDICAL AID FOR PAKISTAN Devastating floods in Pakistan have caused the displacement of at least 20 million people. They are stranded without food, water and little or no shelter. Efforts have to be stepped up to provide them with food and water and every little bit helps. Sonia Klein, former Parliamentary candidate for Ilford North, in cooperation with Pakistan International Airlines, last month organised for the East London community to contribute to flood relief in Pakistan. PIA has been running free airlifts to deliver boxes of food, water and other basic necessities. Sonia heard of what PIA was trying to do, and organised several drop off centres all over East London where people could bring boxes or bags of goods to be brought to Heathrow Airport and onto PIAâ€&#x;s planes. The response was overwhelming! Individuals, groups of neighbours, and charities started bringing hundreds of bags and boxes, some from as far away as Cambridge. All of the donations were collected from the drop centres and brought to Soniaâ€&#x;s home in Romford stacked to the ceiling, taped up, labelled, and stuffed into vans. Within no time we were warning PIA of the impending drop off of over two thousand kilos of goods. Anything that can be done to raise the profile of the disaster will only help to bring more aid to the people affected by the flood. Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time, energy and supplies to the relief efforts.

The Everything Song
I'm gonna take my bicycle and ride out to a field and play under the sky with the mosquitoes and the birds. We can play together, you can come with me. Have you ever had a picnic sitting high up in a tree? Every single blade of grass And every day and month that pass and every coloured leaf that decorates the fall. Every flake of snow is different, every place you go is different, everyone you know is different, that's the beauty of it all. There are a million picture puzzle pieces in the passing clouds we can contemplate and dream upon the beauty of the signs. I like to lay down with my head upon the grass, laughing with the moon and winking back at stars that pass. Every single star you see and every rock within the sea and every drop of rain that you've Ever felt fall. Every flake of snow is different, every place you go is different,
Page 19
everyone you know is different, that's the beauty of it all. Every print on every finger of each human on the earth is different from each other finger print since the start of time. Nadia speaks with her hands not a sound comes from her lips, Abdullah doesn't use his eyes, reads with his finger tips. Every face and you and me, and every stripe on every bee, every creature that you see swim, fly run or crawl, every flake of snow is different, every place you go is different, everyone you know is different that's the beauty of it all. http://youtube.com/watch? v=arypRRZnFa4

HMC was born essentially out of one concern and one concern only; to be able to provide assurance that we are eating genuine Halal, not just “because it says Halal… it must be Halal!" HMC is the product of a particular, prolonged situation – a situation of deceit and treachery. Muslims are being betrayed by individuals & corporations whose only concern is making fast, easy money. Using 'blessed blades', pre recorded Bismillah, captive bolts, electrified water and even pork proteins; the hard-earned Halal cash of many is being used to buy Haram. HMC has therefore, shouldered the enormous responsibility of discharging an obligatory duty on behalf of you, the community at large. Help HMC to Help You!
