The ceremony, which was organised by the Health Promotion Department in conjunction with the International Volunteer Day, in addition to honouring the volunteers in the department and heads of associations, a dialogue session was held on the role of volunteering in enhancing the capabilities and skills of volunteers and developing their positive spirit and teamwork towards serving the country.

The wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah, Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher, said: Today I am pleased to see a new start for a group of hearts raised on giving and brought up in an environment of goodness, to see today stars shining with their effort, time and knowledge in great works.

Her Highness emphasised: This group of male and female volunteers would not have been with us today without the efforts of the work team in the Health Promotion Department, from which we are accustomed to initiatives and programmes that contributed to raising health awareness in the community of the Emirate of Sharjah.

Her Highness said: This ceremony, in which we are united by good, proves to us the continuation of a successful path in achieving the goals for which it was established, and this humanitarian role played by the Health Education Department's work team is a reflection of his love for his community.
