104 IN THE SHADE

Matthew Robinson (Muhammad Abdul Mateen)

Description

In 2016 and after 19 years in the industry, film and TV editor Matthew Robinson decided to make a change. He quit his lucrative work, with a huge paycut and joined a UK charity based in a small office above West London Islamic Cultural Centre.

It changed his life forever.

This book is about his experiences in the world of humanitarian work, including filming a cross-Europe aid convoy to Greece; refugee camps in Lebanon and Turkey; open heart surgery on babies in Tanzania; water wells in Ethiopia and Bangladesh; food and water distributions in the desert in Somalia and Yemen; marathons in Morocco and Palestine; and a rickshaw challenge in Pakistan.

It is an honest insight into the world of the charity sector, and a man who has struggled with his own personal issues in an ongoing fight to work in, and understand, a constantly changing world, where the needs and rights of people significantly vary depending on their place of birth.
