  • Zahra is a joy to work with - she is an extremely capable policy professional with a distinct and strategic understanding of any project she works on. Having worked with her on research, policy design, comms visualisations, and event delivery, I would highly recommend her for anyone seeking multi-talented consultant support. She was integral to the success of the work she contributed to, and her expertise is second to none.

  • I am absolutely delighted to offer my strongest possible endorsement for Zahra. She played a pivotal role in the success of our national conference in October last year gathering over 230 delegates in London. Zahra consistently delivered far beyond expectations. Her work ethic is exemplary: she is highly organised, reliable, and always delivers work to a very high standard and within deadlines, while also contributing thoughtful, creative, and strategic ideas to the design and content of the conference. What truly sets Zahra apart, however, is her deep and genuine commitment to this area of work: race and the criminal justice system are clearly close to her heart, and she approaches the work with integrity and compassion, which translated into work that was both impactful and ethically grounded.

  • I worked with Zahra on a research project exploring people’s experience of the justice system. Zahra joined part-way through the project but ‘hit the ground running’. Her knowledge of (and contact in) the voluntary sector was very beneficial to the success of the project. Zahra is highly organised and committed and she is also a great colleague and a pleasure to work with.
