The 21st January 2019 was a day I will never forget.
I finally completed my scholarship programme with the Badiri Academy, NAMA, and the School For Social Entrepreneurs London and Cornwall, UK.
I presented my graduation presentation and received my certificate.
Many thanks to Lina Hamdan, Kylie Dickenson, Jo Van Osch (my amazing mentor), Amy Babor and Sally Heard for their kind words of support and encouragement.
I praise the Almighty Allah subhana wa'tala for giving me the strength and courage to complete the course.
Thank you to my husband Faisal for supporting me over the past 10 years.
