Members of Serve The Heroes, a community group formed by students, are seen handing out food packages to labourers at the Al Ittihad labour accommodation in Sonapur, Dubai in this photograph taken by Gulf News reader Madhu Madan. The event took place on Friday, October 25. Madan said: “Even though the event was on a weekend, none of the members had an issue waking up early. The labourers were informed of our arrival in advance. When we got there, we handed out caps, juices, dates, cakes and apples to each of the 110 labourers.” The labourers that were served work for a company based in Dubai as electricians and plumbers.
