Jane Barraclough, founder of Phoenix Media & Publications, established Yalla in 2015, after moving to Abu Dhabi with her family from Bahrain. As a mother herself and trying to settle her family in to a new country, Jane used her experience to create a directory to ease family life in Abu Dhabi, listing everything from medical companies to sports lessons, family entertainment, and restaurants. With her team, Jane has grown Yalla to be the leading family publication in Abu Dhabi, and made it the go-to resource for information, events, and happenings in the Capital.
