Sharjah24: In line with its social responsibility and commitment to promoting sports, the Sharjah Department of Public Works (SDPW) has launched the "Summer with Us" initiative. This programme aims to distribute cold water to community members engaged in running on the running tracks established by the department. The initiative will run for two months throughout the summer.

Community engagement

Volunteers from the department will distribute cold drinking water bottles to all community members participating in sports at the National Park walkways, helping to alleviate the heat during the summer, especially at sunset.

Promoting health and hydration

The campaign aims to raise awareness about the importance of exercise and healthy living, highlighting the necessity of staying hydrated to avoid heat-related illnesses. Organizers encourage public participation in providing cold water bottles for everyone.

Commitment to infrastructure

Imran Ali from the department’s corporate communication center expressed happiness about this community initiative, which aims to provide refreshing drinking water. The Sharjah Public Works Department has previously implemented over 35 rubberized walking paths, including those in parks and public areas, such as the Keshisha Park, Shagrafaa, and Al-Seyouh Public Park.
