About the Ashiana Trust

For the past 10 years, Ashiana has been supporting and empowering children and young adults with learning difficulties and their carers. The charity provides a service which is much needed within the Asian community and aims to combat the stigma associated with being disabled. Ashiana also runs monthly events which include ten pin bowling, quiz and movie nights and indoor and outdoor sporting activities. "I am happy to support the excellent work that Ashiana carry out. The opportunities created for people to live full and active lives are critical and I trust that Harrow Council will continue to support the project financially" said MP Bob Blackman.
