An Inspiring Talk with Azeem Amir
Tuesday, 11th February 2025
What an amazing few days we have had welcoming Learn With ESS to our school. Azeem Amir, who plays for the England Blind Men’s Football Team, and Zara Musker, who plays for England Deaf Futsal and Team GB Football, have inspired our RBHS students to embrace all aspects of disability and deepen their understanding of the daily life experiences faced by individuals with disabilities.
Throughout the visit, Azeem and Zara shared their personal journeys, demonstrating how they have overcome life challenges by embodying the values of empathy, kindness, resilience, respect, and responsibility. This was a memorable experience that gave our students the chance to hear from incredible role models who have excelled despite their challenges.
The visit also included practical activities that helped our students gain hands-on experience and insight into the barriers faced by individuals with disabilities. Our students were immensely inspired by the work and the powerful messages delivered by Azeem and Zara.
A huge thank you to Azeem and Zara for sharing their time, experiences, and wisdom with our students.
