Voices
Our founder
We take immense pride in our rich history, rooted in the journey of our founder and CEO, Magdalene Usikaro. After migrating to the UK in 1992, aged 11, from Nigeria, Magdalene became a teenage mother in 1998 and faced shame, stigmatisation, and exclusion from her church and family.
