Walkers Dubai teams up with the students from the SNF Centre for International Day of Disabled Persons

The SNF Group is a specialised learning development and training facility in Dubai that provides individualised training programs and support to young adults with special needs. The centre stresses the need to work together with students, parents, therapists, teachers, learning support professionals and the greater Dubai community in order to maximise each student’s full potential. SNF was established in April 2007 to provide a dedicated place to help young adults with special needs to facilitate their lifelong learning and development. Today, the centre caters to 32 students from the age of 14 and above, who are offered professional and personalised care for their overall development.

Walkers volunteers joined the students at the centre for an interactive and fun morning of gardening. Through this initiative, the young adults were able to explore their artistry, build their confidence and enhance their communication skills.

We subsequently hosted a Christmas pop up on 11 December 2023 where the students from the centre sold their handicrafts and all of the proceeds went directly to the centre. It was great to reconnect with the students again and we are already looking forward to next year!
