Afghan Paralympian Qaher Hazrat seeking UK asylum appeals for new prosthetic legs.
Crowdfunder launched for Qaher Hazrat who cannot get replacement legs on NHS as he does not have refugee status.
A Paralympic cyclist from Afghanistan who is seeking asylum in the UK is struggling to walk on broken prosthetic legs after being denied new ones because he does not have refugee status.
Qaher Hazrat has been given a secondhand bike by a charity to help him get around but this week it was stolen from where it was locked outside his Home Office hotel, leaving him devastated and even more restricted in his ability to move around.

Iranian artist Mohammad Barrangi opens Leeds show exploring disability and migration
Paralympian Mohammad Barrangi hopes his work will help people think of human stories behind headlines.
A decade ago, the artist Mohammad Barrangi was representing Iran as a Paralympic sprinter.
Barrangi is about to open a major show in Leeds that shines light on his remarkable story of turning what may seem like adversity into endless possibility.
“The Sea is Stormy”, an installation by Iranian born artist Mohammad Barrangi at his exhibition “One Night, One Dream, Life in the Lighthouse” which opens on 1 May at the Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery at the University of Leeds.
The exhibition features Barrangi’s innovative printmaking process together with sculpture, installation and sound. He weaves a dreamlike universe from childhood memories and Persian mythology, revolving around the story of a young Iranian girl’s arrival on the English coast, and contemplating his own experiences of migration and disability. The exhibition is part of the Leeds-wide Smeaton300 programme in celebration of the tercentenary of the UK’s first civil engineer, John Smeaton.
Born without the use of his left arm, Barrangi has developed a unique method of covering paper, walls and sculptures with exquisitely coloured layers of imagery and text. This new body of work draws on?the wealth of objects, artefacts and books he encountered in the University’s Archives, including Iranian calligraphy, Middle Eastern textiles and manuscripts and early European scientific illustrations.?After representing Iran internationally as a paralympic sprinter, Barrangi came to the UK in 2017.

Iranian artist Mohammad Barrangi opens Leeds show exploring disability and migration
Paralympian Mohammad Barrangi hopes his work will help people think of human stories behind headlines.
A decade ago, the artist Mohammad Barrangi was representing Iran as a Paralympic sprinter.
Barrangi is about to open a major show in Leeds that shines light on his remarkable story of turning what may seem like adversity into endless possibility.
Iranian born artist Mohammad Barrangi poses by “The Sea is Stormy”, one of the installations at his exhibition “One Night, One Dream, Life in the Lighthouse” which opens on 1 May at the Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery at the University of Leeds.
The exhibition features Barrangi’s innovative printmaking process together with sculpture, installation and sound. He weaves a dreamlike universe from childhood memories and Persian mythology, revolving around the story of a young Iranian girl’s arrival on the English coast, and contemplating his own experiences of migration and disability. The exhibition is part of the Leeds-wide Smeaton300 programme in celebration of the tercentenary of the UK’s first civil engineer, John Smeaton.
Born without the use of his left arm, Barrangi has developed a unique method of covering paper, walls and sculptures with exquisitely coloured layers of imagery and text. This new body of work draws on?the wealth of objects, artefacts and books he encountered in the University’s Archives, including Iranian calligraphy, Middle Eastern textiles and manuscripts and early European scientific illustrations.?After representing Iran internationally as a paralympic sprinter, Barrangi came to the UK in 2017.
