Hina has taught for 20 years in some of London’s most deprived areas and founded two charities to help young people.

Hina became the first Muslim female Merton Councillor serving West Barnes ward in 2018. In 2021 she became one of the first Muslim women elected in the London Assembly. In 2022 she became the Chair of the London Assembly Economy Committee. Her other key areas of work have been on air pollution and addressing the fire safety crisis.

Other than raising her two young children, Hina wants to ensure the widest range of communities and more young people are participating in decision making. She is passionate about electoral reform and making voting fairer for all.
