Support British Citizens to the Hajj & Umrah

Additional Information

The Council of British Hajjis (cbhuk.org) asks the British Government to support British citizens undertaking the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, by sending a Medical Team and volunteers with the appropriate supplies to support and treat around 25,000 British pilgrims & thereby reduce illness and burden on the NHS on return.

To further address issues of bogus and unscrupulous tour operators who dupe pilgrims off their life saving by helping to create public awareness and support within the community though the Big Society initiative.

Around 25,000 British Citizens perform the annual Hajj with almost 3 million attending worldwide to Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Over 125,000 British citizens perform the lesser pilgrimage of Umrah each year.
