Ayub Akhtar memorial

Donation protected
Ayub Akhtar tragically lost his life to covid-19 early Friday on morning at St George's Hospital, Tooting. He is deeply mourned by his family, friends and also his many comrades at United Private Hire Drivers.  He was just 32 years old. 

Ayub and his brother Yasser helped found our UPHD organisation and was one of its most loyal supporters. He gave much of himself to help others and to build our movement for change. Together with Yasser, he  bravely challenged  the terrible injustices of our industry.  He stood against discrimination, fought to end exploitation and worked tirelessly so that drivers might have a better life.  

We have launched this fundraiser to honour Ayub's memory and to help his family defray funeral expenses.
