My children and my family make me happy. When I see my wife's beautiful smile in the morning it brings me joy and makes me feel like everything is going to be okay.
In 2013 my wife and I left Syria due to the unstable situation and moved to Egypt. We were living in Egypt for 5 years before we came to the UK. We have twin boys. They are everything to me. One was born with quite severe disabilities. We came to England especially to support him as his health is really high on our priority list. It's my dream that he gets the care that he needs and that he can live life like any other child. I want him to be able to enjoy all of life's simple pleasures just like his brother does.
I really want to start working as a security guard because I like being outside and meeting new people. I'm a really big people person. I built a career as a Perfumer in Syria and Egypt. Apart from having fun mixing the fragrances, I really enjoyed helping people find the right scent for them. I think I can use those people skills in this job while also providing for my family.
If I were to list my dreams for you I would say: 1st) for my son to be better, I pray for him every day. 2nd) I pray for my country to get better. I have such joyful memories growing up in Syria, I would love to share this with my children one day. 3rd) That I can finally gain my British passport and travel the world freely - of course when it's safe to do so. 4th) To improve my confidence in my English. I would say I understand the language very well, but I'm not always confident. I'm really excited to expand my vocabulary and hopefully, this job will help me to do that.
I feel very excited to be launching my Beam campaign. I can't wait to expand my horizons, meet new people and support my family. Thank you all for your support, and thanks especially to my caseworker Adut.
