The smile of an innocent child is one of the most endearing things to experience in life.

Imagine now, the smile of an innocent child who is suffering from cancer, has fled their home and become a refugee in a foreign land. Against that backdrop, the smile now becomes infinitely more priceless.

They say charity begins at home and so it was that the Homeless Project in Brighton was first conceived by local resident and Deen Relief founder, Shabek Ali, in the winter of 2010. Since then, Deen Relief has continued to regularly provide a lifeline of support for thousands of vulnerable people living rough on the streets of Brighton.

At Deen Relief, we often keep in touch with those who have benefitted from our work
and check back with them from time to time. It was with great sadness that we learnt
that Juber’s mother, Khaleka, passed away last year in Ramadan 2020. She had been
suffering from kidney problems.
