Hi my name is Hasnain and I am 17 years. My interests are playing sports such as tablet tennis, football, badminton and going to martial arts. There are several reasons why I joined the youth advisory board.

Firstly, my friend Hadeeqa, who is already part of the youth advisory board, asked me to join as she knows that I like helping people. Additionally, in life I'm busy with school, so I felt like why not join and help the young people who are less unfortunate.

Lastly, I'm a Muslim and in Islam we have the 5 pillars and zakat (charity) is the 3rd pillar, they say that you should try and help poor people financially or give your time to support them. I hope with me joining the youth advisory board I would like to be a better person through my actions as they say "actions speak louder than words". I would like to develop my communication skills, confidence and teamworking skills when participating in the youth advisory board.
