Meet our student ambassadors
The creative, constructive collaboration between university and community helps our work in Grangetown thrive.
We currently have two student ambassadors working with us for this academic year, who each bring a passion and unique perspective to our work at Community Gateway.
Yassin Aldhahi
Yassin is a third year integrated Engineering student and likes to get involved in a lot of activities and loves to take advantage of any opportunities that are available to expand his horizons and experiences. He has a strong technical interest in the power industry and is currently an IET Power Academy scholar, partnered with National Grid, having completed an 8-week internship with them and will be returning to them again after his final year of study. Yassin strongly believes in the importance of social and community work and is very excited to get involved with Community Gateway as they plan for the 2024 Grangetown Careers and Role Model Week event.
Hanna Mahamed
Hanna, a Cardiff native and first-year neuroscience student, is eager to contribute to the vibrant community she calls home. With a deep-rooted love for her city, Hanna is not only dedicated to her academic pursuits but also passionate about fostering connections within the community. Embracing her role as a student ambassador, with a focus on communications and social media, she seeks to engage with her peers and the wider community. As someone from a BAME, working class background, she is particularly enthusiastic about assisting individuals from similar backgrounds in accessing higher education, advocating for inclusivity and diversity in university.
