4 I send my best wishes to the who are supporting this year s Poppy Appeal. I m delighted to hear over 300 members will be out in force throughout November collecting at train stations and other places around the country. Prime Minister: David Cameron It s great to see so many young people giving up their own time to help those who have served our country while remembering those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. This volunteer work represents an essential part of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community s really important contribution to UK national life - whether through helping to raise wider awareness and understanding of the Islamic faith, or fundraising and feeding the homeless, donating blood, and other charitable acts. Deputy Prime Minister: Nick Clegg I applaud the efforts of the AMA to strive for peace and to build bridges between diverse communities... I therefore applaud the AMA ethos Love for All Hatred for None That underpins all their work. The Mayor of London: Boris Johnson As one of the oldest Islamic Communities in the Capital, who build the first London Mosque, the Ahmadis have been an important part of the history of the city and it is fitting that they are also part of the historic celebration for the Diamond Jubilee.

5 The Charity Challenge is also unique in the sense that it is entirely organised and managed by the youth History of the Charity Challenge What started off as a 26 mile marathon walk in 1985, raising a few thousand pounds for worthwhile causes, has now evolved into a showpiece event for the Association known as the Charity Challenge, where close to 1,000 people participate in raising upwards of 100,000 for a number of local and national charities. In recent years the venue for the Charity Challenge has rotated each year thereby allowing different regions the honour of hosting the event. The chosen region, with the help of the Central Executive Committee, is responsible for organising the Charity Challenge which includes planning the route, liaising with external organisations such as the police and the council, site security, providing accommodation for participants and preparing food for close to 1,000 people. This adds an extra dimension and unique flavour to the Charity Challenge with each region competing to ensure the latest Charity Challenge is better than the previous one. The Charity Challenge is also unique in the sense that it is entirely organised and managed by the youth, who are unpaid volunteers, with every penny raised going directly to the allocated charities for that year.

7 Statements of Support Great Ormond Street Hospital Children s Charity is delighted to receive the continuing support of Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association. Great Ormond Street Hospital is one of the world s leading children s hospitals with the broadest range of dedicated, children s healthcare specialists under one roof in the UK. The hospital s pioneering research and treatment gives hope to children who are suffering from the rarest, most complex and often lifethreatening conditions, from across the country and abroad. Jenny Pearce Fundraising Executive Great Ormand Street Hospital The support we receive from is helping us to continue with our ambitious plans to redevelop twothirds of the hospital. We are part way through our four phase redevelopment programme and last year opened our newest building which features larger rooms, more space for parents to sleep along their child in comfort, increased privacy for our patients and better working environments for the staff. But our work is not done. We still have too many patients being treated in wards which are cramped, outdated and no longer fit-for-purpose. By working together you can help us to raise funds which may go towards the new building which is due to open in British Heart Foundation scientists are fighting for every heartbeat for babies born with heart defects to the millions of adults affected by heart disease, BHF scientists are carrying the fight for every heartbeat into the future. We have already made heart research history. And with the help of our researchers tireless work, we will uncover the mysteries that could help us regenerate hearts, form new arteries and muscle, and ultimately stop heart disease in its tracks. Simon Gillespie Chief Executive British Heart Foundation In 2012/13 we invested 90.7 million to fund vital and ambitious research to save the lives of future generations. You have kindly contributed to this. Your fundraising and donation of approximately 15,000 is being used to fund this vital work. It costs 200 to fund one of our young scientists for a whole day. We currently provide the salaries for around 500 post-doctoral scientists who work in research teams right across the UK. Your support this year is the equivalent of 75 days of funding for one of these scientists. Thank you. You are making a difference and fighting for every heartbeat.

8 Dear Friends Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research has had the privilege and good fortune to work with the for many years. First of all thanks to their support of London Bikeathon, our flagship cycling event, we now have 7,000 cyclists raising more than 700,000 for Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research. As a consequence, Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association has on more than one occasion won our award for volunteering at our Annual Sports Event Awards ceremony. At the same the has organised their own events including a sponsored walk and their own Bikeathon, which has enabled them to raise thousands of pounds in support of our work. It has been my pleasure to speak to gatherings of the Association on a few occasions over the years, and I couldn t have been more impressed by their outstanding community spirit and tireless and selfless dedication to helping others demonstrated by everyone involved in the Association. I know there are exciting plans for the year ahead and I am sure that the partnership between, MK Dons SET and Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research will go from strength to strength. This will enable Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research to stop people dying from blood cancers; make patients lives better and prevent blood cancers from happening in the first place. I m sorry that I can t join you at this special game, but send you my very best wishes for a great afternoon. Enjoy the holiday season and very best wishes for a healthy and happy 2014!
