About this listen
In Shakespeaere’s a Midsummer Night’s Dream, there is a line that says “though she be but little, she is fierce”, that is Shahin. Short in height, mighty in her passion, compassion and willingness to stand against injustice and inequalities, you will hear from our chat that Shahin has always carried that thread through her whole life.
She helped set up and then run a helpline for Muslim women with the Muslim Women’s Network and is currently working for Islamic Relief Worldwide as their Head of Global Advocacy. She is a Green Party Councillor in her local area of Solihull and recently became the first Muslim woman to become the Mayor of Solihull.
Shahin is funny, has a no-nonsense approach and like so many women, seems to be getting more confident and passionate about what she believes in, as she gets older.
