I am an adviser on a range of Somali development issues including housing, education, health, policy, language and culture offering impartial and professional advice with vast connections and networks to meet high standards of delivering my assignments. I lobby and press the authorities to address the inequalities the Somali community faces, and advise to address the inequalities. My currency and commodity are trustworthy and my earned trust that my community and colleagues vested in me. My weakness is to say it as it is without masking with respect at the ears of the party itself without a megaphone to all.

Working in partnership with FareShare UK, FareShare Midlands is the largest food redistribution charity in the region, feeding over 80,000 people every week.
