Felt honoured and proud today to receive an MBE. It’s incredible and did not expect the Royal Family to put this tweet out! Congrats to all who received their honours, some amazing people doing good work. It’s an honour to work with women, British Muslim women. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
"Really this honour is not just for me but for all the Muslim women I have worked with around the country who are doing amazing things and contributing to their own local communities" . @AkeelaAhmed founder @SheSpeaksWeHear, an online platform for Muslim women, receives an #MBE
