Hashim Family Legacy - Disneyland Trip

Thank you to every single person who has donated to our first three trips.

In the catastrophic fire that engulfed the Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017, Solidarity Sports tragically lost three of our children and their parents - among the many others who senselessly died that day. 

Firdaws, 12, was one of the Hashim family children. A bright star with a beautiful caring nature, she dreamed of visiting Disneyland, and will now never have the chance. 

In her honour, and as a legacy to the family, Solidarity Sports has launched The Hashim Family Legacy, helping to make children's wishes come true. 

The first was a trip to Disneyland Paris in October 2017. We went again in April 2018 and September 2019. 

Your funds enable us to create magical experiances for our children and keep the memory of Firdaws and her family alive.

Auntie Assema reflects on the siblings of Firdaws, Yahya and Yaqub and gives her thoughts on the Legacy: 

"Yaqub was so full of life and energy. It was impossible to spend a minute with him without laughing." 

"Yahya was a very kind, polite, loving, generous, thankful and pure-hearted boy. He used to say 'ahh, delicious' to whatever food he was served (except egg) even without first tasting it." 

"The legacy aims to fulfil the dreams of children who have been left traumatised. We believe they would have wanted us to do something positive in their name and there is nothing more beautiful than fulfilling a child’s dream who has suffered so much."

This legacy is a permeanant project which we hold very close to our hearts.
