I heard about HAAYA through the graduate challenge I was on. We had people from Hillingdon Association of Voluntary Services (HAVS) who came in and discussed placements available for volunteering. Haaya seemed really interesting to me because it offers help and advice for young under privileged people in their community.”
“HAAYA helped me gain experience, apply the skills I learnt and most of all, it helped me gain confidence!”
Before joining HAAYA, I was doing the graduate challenge, which works closely with HAAYA in providing placements for graduates looking to volunteer.”
We am still working with HAAYA on one of their public exhibitions
Step out of your comfort zone, trying new things can seem scary – but take risks because without them, you can’t really grow.
“I was involved in one of HAAYA’s projects around design propositions for the new centre. I took part in the public consultation and writing reports.
I liked the fact that HAAYA caters to the needs of the Hounslow community and want to help the young people in that community reach their full potential
Reflecting on my academic journey, I can confidently assert that the Saturday School initiative orchestrated by HAAYA played a pivotal role in my success, particularly in conquering the complexities of GCSE Maths. I cannot overstate the significance of their unwavering support and guidance. To anyone grappling with educational challenges, I unequivocally advocate seeking assistance from HAAYA

HAAYA is great! I especially enjoy the residential trips. I remember one time we went to Brenscombe outdoor centre and we were taught how to drive a speed boat, I loved it!
