Mrs Aminat A
Founder, DAMMTVANDFAMILYCOMMUNITY CIC
Mrs Aminat Alamu O is the founder of DAMMTVANDFAMILYCOMMUNITY CIC, and leads the Family Heritage Network project under the organisation. Her journey began from deeply personal experience: after her eldest daughter was assaulted, she navigated the aftermath feeling isolated and unsupported – this became her calling to build a space where everyone can find strength, understanding, and community.
Driven by this mission, she supports families settling in the UK, helping them navigate local systems and build confident, hopeful lives. We work with Austin Dance Theatre and other local groups, running inclusive activities for everyone – no matter colour, age or background – open to children, adults, men and women aged 5 to 80. We create safe, welcoming spaces where all can join in, connect and thrive.
We are supported by a dedicated team of volunteers, and proud to partner with WEAP (Walsall Energy Action Project) to help local families with energy advice and practical support.
She also volunteers as a Tennis Activator with the LTA, and with the Windrush Sisters and Family Heritage Network. She holds qualifications in Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG), counselling, mental health support, and computer skills. With this wide range of experience, she acts as a trusted bridge between people and the help they need – offering compassionate guidance, signposting to the right services, and empowering everyone to access support fairly.
