WHO WE ARE
We create spaces where British Somali women feel seen, heard and valued — celebrating culture, building confidence and shaping the future, together.
British Somali women are leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals, creatives, mothers, daughters and changemakers whose contributions enrich communities across the UK.
Yet many continue to navigate two worlds at once. Hablo RISE exists to turn that in between into a place of belonging — where culture is a source of strength and community is a source of support.
Need & Impact
One of the youngest and fastest-growing communities in the UK.
full of ambition, yet still facing barriers in representation, culturally responsive healthcare, wellbeing and opportunity.
OUR WORK
One sisterhood, three ways
Designed by British Somali women, our programmes meet our community where they are — in health, in learning, and in belonging.
