Empowering Communities through the United Care Kids Leadership Programme

 This programme is my humble contribution to helping children across Aotearoa believe in themselves, speak with purpose, and grow into the leaders our future needs. With the support of our dedicated team, I’m proud to lead this initiative and help shape a generation that knows anything is possible.

Theme 1:  Parliament 

The United Care Kids Leadership Programme is a 6-week initiative designed to empower children aged 7–11 with leadership, communication, and civic awareness skills. Through a blend of self-learning modules, interactive online sessions, and group practice, kids explore the foundations of Parliament, leadership values, and public speaking.

The programme culminates in a Speech Day, where participants confidently present their ideas in a supportive setting—building the belief that anything is possible. Led by Programme Chair Junaid Qureshi and a passionate team, this initiative prepares young minds for the future, including the skills needed in an AI-driven world.

We provide resources and tools to community groups, enabling them to initiate a funeral support program within their communities. We believe that together, we are stronger. Whether your community group consists of just four members or thousands, our Funeral Support Program brings people together to pool funds and ensure a proper funeral for any member or their dependents. By contributing collectively, funeral costs become more manageable, easing the financial burden on the deceased's family.

As part of the membership, principal members contribute an equal amount to cover funeral costs. The funds collected are utilized to arrange and pay for funerals of the members and their dependents whenever the need arises.
