Make content about: Laiba mentors young people
Struggling with low confidence at thirteen, Laiba learned her own worth by mentoring a toddler. Today, she mentors others.
This story
At 13, dealing with her parents' split, Laiba was skipping school lessons and struggling with low confidence and self-worth. Joining a mentoring programme where she supported a shy toddler helped her recognize her own value. She went on to achieve good GCSE grades, entered university to study psychology, and now mentors young people and advocates for mental health.
