The Saudi Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development launched on Sunday the "Anwarat" initiative to provide comprehensive services for pilgrims throughout their Hajj journey.

Services will be provided from the moment the pilgrims arrive to their departure and will be implemented through the ministry's branches nationwide.

The initiative offers a range of services, including welcoming pilgrims at land crossing points and at the holy sites, providing multilingual guidance, and supporting elderly pilgrims and persons with disabilities through accessible transportation and trained personnel.

Moreover, the initiative promotes volunteerism by recruiting and deploying volunteers in various roles, including field support, guiding pilgrims at the holy sites, and distributing meals, beverages, and gifts.
