EVENT DESCRIPTION:
Our esteemed guest speakers include Stephan Verborg - Orthopaedic Surgeon and Sian Falder – Plastic Surgeon who are medical professionals and surgeons with experience working in Gaza and Lebanon, where they have selflessly provided vital medical assistance to those affected by the conflict. And here’s something truly special – you’ll get to witness a live stream from Victoria Rose – Plastic Surgeon, Graeme Groom – Orthopaedic Surgeon, Co-Chair of IDEALS in Gaza and Mohammed Ziara – Plastic Surgeon, (originally from Gaza) in Lebanon. Driven by a strong sense of duty and empathy, these healthcare professionals will share their experiences and insights during the dinner.
The evening will begin with recitation from the Qur'an, followed by a spiritual reminder. We will then hear from our medical team, which includes members who have recently returned from Gaza and others who are preparing to go there soon. Following this, we will enjoy a delicious three-course meal, providing an opportunity for attendees to mingle and engage in conversations with fellow individuals committed to making a positive impact. As the event continues, our esteemed speakers will take the stage to provide updates on the medical conditions in Gaza, highlighting the challenges faced by the local population and the efforts of medical teams to address these issues.
The highlight of the evening will be a special fundraising segment where attendees can contribute to future medical deployments in Gaza & Lebanon. Your support will have a direct impact on ongoing efforts to provide essential medical care to those in need. Every donation, regardless of size, will make a significant difference in the lives of people affected by the conflict.
We invite you to join us in this compassionate effort, standing together to support a cause that transcends borders and upholds the values of humanity. Together, let us create a lasting impact on the lives of those in Gaza & Lebanon, showcasing the power of collective compassion and solidarity.
