About Us
A Healing Light for Survivors
of Abuse
Nour exists to illuminate pathways beyond trauma and
abuse for survivors from minoritised communities.
Founded in 2011 by two Muslim university students who saw women staying silent because they feared they wouldn't be understood. Nour is an Arabic word meaning 'light'.
What started as a vision has grown into an organisation led by and for women from minoritised communities, bringing together lived experience, professional expertise, and deep cultural understanding.
Every life transformed ripples outward, creating waves of change in families, communities, and future generations. Through counselling, community workshops, awareness campaigns, and advocacy work.
We're supporting survivors and working towards a world where people can live safe and meaningful lives.
