MP for Sheffield Central

Sheffield is my home, and throughout my life it’s given me a lot.

Education, community, and politics have changed my life, and allowed me to work with others to change our city. I’ve had to work hard, and I believe no one should be held back by a lack of opportunities. 

I’m a community leader, a senior councillor and a lawyer. All my life I’ve worked with people to achieve change for our communities. Now I want to take our fight to Westminster. I’m ready to serve as your Labour MP.

I know from all of my experience that change only happens when we stand together. As your MP, I will work to bring people together, every single day. That’s how we will deliver real change for our communities, our city and our country.

My Story

My Story

Abi and Dad

A Labour Government gave me opportunity

I’m the daughter of a Yemeni steelworker. Growing up here during the 1980s and 90s I experienced the pain and poverty caused by the Tories.

I left school with 4 GCSEs, but through hard work and access to education made possible by a Labour Government.

I qualified as a teacher and then as a lawyer, while working full-time in community development.

Now I'm giving back

Everything I’ve ever done has been to give back. I’ve never sought the limelight. I’ve just focused on getting things done.

Too often people are held back through no fault of their own - like the children I’ve worked with who have a lower life expectancy because of where they’re born, or the people without enough money for legal representation who I’ve supported for no charge.

I have 20 years experience of working in, with and for communities. I’ve put in place services for all ages. I’ve set up a nursery and run community health and skills programmes.

In 2014 I founded my own law practice to provide legal advice and representation to vulnerable people in our city.

I've got experience, and I'm ready to serve

As the senior councillor responsible for Education when Covid-19 hit, I ensured children were safe, and teachers could educate them from home. I made it my mission to reduce school exclusions. I fought education cuts standing alongside trade unions, community groups and families.

I not only supported the Black Lives Matter movement, I set up a Race Equality Commission to tackle structural inequalities in our city.

As a lawyer, community leader and senior councillor I know how to bring about change. Now I’m ready to take our fight to the top.

Consultation on a banking hub

Consultation on a Banking Hub

Would you like to see a Banking Hub in Sheffield Central?

The NatWest branch on Hunter's Bar is being closed down on 7 May. This will mean a lot of customers in the area will have a long journey for in-person banking, which is not acceptable.

The closure of more branches across the UK is on the horizon, due to lack of demand, cost-cutting and a move to digital services, but this could mean that many people are left behind.

Banking Hubs are being touted as an effective solution to this problem.

Banking Hubs, run by the Post Office, allow communities to access banking services from all major high street banks. They are shared spaces where banks can offer a few of the services of a standard bank branch, such as personal banking and paying bills.

For more information, see the Post Office website.
