Meet a Changemaker: Anab Hoffmann, CEO, Founder and Director of Healtogether CIC
Anab gave up her corporate job during the pandemic to start Healtogether, after she realised there were critical gaps in services for the Somali community in Newham. She found that the community didn’t have a safe space – so she set up a place that is peer support led, understands the culture, speaks the language and has the skillsets to provide the advocacy work that the community needs. She has also started a youth service to provide a space for young people to make sure they are heard, with culturally sensitive provision. She has never looked back, and loves doing something that has a tangible impact on her community.
