Thank you from Sadiq
Dear Hope Foundation for Research on Ageing
I am writing to express my deepest gratitude to the Hope Foundation for Research on Ageing for awarding me the Hope Foundation Scholarship for 2025. It is an incredible honour for me to be recognised as an early researcher by such a prestigious organisation dedicated to advancing research on ageing and improving the lives of older adults.
This scholarship will not only provide significant financial support as I pursue my research but also serve as a powerful motivator to contribute meaningfully to the field of ageing studies. Your support allows me to completely focus on my PhD study.
In my academic journey so far, I have published a research paper titled “Public Spaces for Older People: A Review of the Relationship between Public Space to Quality of Life” and my second paper “An Ethnographic Exploration of Older Adults’ Activities in Urban Public Spaces” is currently under review in the journal Local Environment. I will continue to pursue my dedication to producing high-quality research that contributes to academic discourse and advances knowledge related to ageing.
Once again, I thank you for your confidence in my work and for supporting my academic and professional journey. I look forward to sharing the outcomes of my research with you in the future.
With sincere gratitude and warm wishes.
