Evest honours Dr. Nadia Al Sayegh and the community work behind Senses Center.
- Evest celebrates Emirati women whose leadership creates lasting community impact.
- Dr. Nadia Al Sayegh’s work puts inclusion into everyday action.
- Children at Senses Center shared joyful moments with visiting Evest team.
- Community service gives Emirati Women’s Month a deeper meaning.
A celebration of women can take many forms, but some of the most meaningful moments happen away from stages and spotlights. During Emirati Women’s Month, Evest chose a more personal setting, visiting Senses Residential and Day Care for Special Needs and meeting the people behind its community work. It was a reminder that Emirati women can shape change through service as much as leadership.
A room filled with children, staff and visiting team members tells a different story about recognition. At Senses Center, Evest joined interactive activities and shared gifts with the children, turning a commemorative occasion into an afternoon of connection. Small moments mattered here.
A career built around care rarely fits neatly into a headline. Dr. Nadia Al Sayegh, Founder and Director General of Senses Center, has spent decades working across specialised care, rehabilitation and support for People of Determination, helping create more opportunities for inclusion within the wider community. Her story gave Evest’s visit a very human focus.
A child joining an activity, a staff member guiding the room, and a visitor discovering the centre’s work can say more than a formal speech. That was the atmosphere Evest encountered at Senses, an organisation established in 2004 that provides residential care, education, rehabilitation and specialised therapeutic services for children. It’s community work in its most tangible form.
Across the UAE, Emirati Women’s Month this year carries the theme “We Emerge Stronger and Better”, creating space to recognise women whose contributions reach far beyond their professional titles. Evest’s visit fits naturally into that wider conversation by putting community service beside achievement.
For Dr. Nadia, the message is rooted in giving. She has spoken about Emirati women taking their place at the forefront of community life, drawing inspiration from the values associated with Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak. Her definition of success is especially striking: making a lasting difference in the lives of others.
A visit can be brief. Its meaning doesn’t have to be.
For Evest, recognising Dr. Nadia’s work also meant recognising the wider team at Senses and the children whose daily experiences are shaped by specialised support. The company’s Business Development Manager and Official Spokesperson, Wael Rashid, described the visit as an opportunity to celebrate Emirati women while supporting a segment of society deserving sustained collective attention.
Behind every community initiative, there are people doing the work after the cameras leave. Senses Center’s focus on care, education, therapy and inclusion makes that especially clear, while Evest’s visit brought attention to the women and organisations contributing to that work across the UAE.
The most memorable celebrations often leave the room with you. In this case, Emirati Women’s Month became a story about leadership that reaches children, families and communities, proving that recognition can be more meaningful when it is paired with presence, participation and genuine human connection!
