Fahima Danishmal

Originally from Afghanistan and arriving in the UK in 2000, my journey has been devoted to empowering women and supporting Afghan communities. Amidst raising three children, I ventured into establishing various businesses and organisations alongside my partner. While many faced challenges, a few persevered, leading me to the role of CEO and Co-Founder at Thurrock Training Consultancy (TTC). At TTC, our mission is to facilitate the entry of individuals from diverse backgrounds into esteemed universities. We provide comprehensive support in navigating applications, securing accommodations, managing student finances, and offering crucial emotional support. Additionally, our online school, Naz Global offers a wide spectrum of courses, ranging from short programs to postgraduate studies. Beyond these ventures, I've spearheaded non-profit organisations aimed at aiding women in need, advocating for their rights, and amplifying awareness on their behalf. Simultaneously, I stand in support of the Afghan nation, channelling resources and support to aid its cause. My efforts in this domain have been recognized through an official delegation by UN Women, empowering me to further raise awareness for these critical causes.
