Nureen is a remarkable lady!
Sight-impaired, she decided that in order to increase her employment opportunities, she should take a masters degree in Creative Writing. So she took on the challenge.
Since educational establishments weren’t very helpful in enabling her to do this, she surfed the internet and approached several grant funding agencies. Our Diamond Education Fund granted £700, which has enabled her to buy a much-needed laptop.
This has allowed her to spend her own funds on software which will enable her to pursue her ambitions.
Nureen wants to find a voice and express herself. Through her writing she hopes to begin to understand herself and to influence others.
We were pleased to help a little and wish her every success for the future.
