The Big Heart Foundation, a Sharjah-based humanitarian charity, is funding a medical clinic at the Zaatari camp in Jordan, which seeks to provide refugees with 24-hour access to essential healthcare services.
Mariam Al Hammadi, director of Salam Ya Seghar, a TBHF initiative, said: “The need to provide healthcare facilities in Zaatari camp is a pressing one, as more than four years have passed since the camp was established, and maintaining people’s health is an important issue.”

The currency conundrum
Russ Mould, investment director at online trading platform AJ Bell, says almost every major currency has challenges right now. “The US has a huge budget deficit, the euro faces political friction and poor growth, sterling is bogged down by Brexit, China’s renminbi is hit by debt fears while slowing Chinese growth is hurting commodity exporters like Australia and Canada.”
Most countries now actively want a weak currency to make their exports more competitive. “China seems happy to let the renminbi drift lower, the Swiss are still running quantitative easing at full tilt and central bankers everywhere are actively talking down their currencies or offering only limited support," says Mr Mould.
This is a race to the bottom, and everybody wants to be a winner.
