The grant making body, COSARAF Charitable Foundation has committed to supporting the work of the Patchwork Foundation over the coming year. The COSARAF Charitable Foundation has a proud history of enabling young people to realise their potential and particularly to empower women and girls both in the UK and abroad. The activities of the Patchwork Foundation align well with COSARAF Charitable Foundation’s commitment to promoting strong and cohesive communities.

Haroon Sheikh, Founder and Chairman of COSARAF Charitable Foundation said “The Patchwork Foundation is doing excellent work to ensure that young people who too often feel that their voice is unheard in society can learn how to get involved in our democracy.  This is a vital task which chimes with our strong commitment to building strong and cohesive communities and we are delighted to support the Foundation’s important work.”

Imran Sanaullah, CEO, Patchwork Foundation said “The COSARAF Foundation has been a long-term supporter of the Patchwork Foundation and we would like to thank them for their continued support and commitment this year of our MP of the Year Awards, which recognises MP’s who have gone above and beyond to engage with people from disadvantaged and underrepresented communities. COSARAF’s support enables us to continue encouraging MPs to engage with all groups and bridge the gap between decision-makers and those from underrepresented communities across the UK. “
