We are pleased to share we have welcomed to our team Zulaikha, a Social Work student completing her placement with Young Bristol.
Zulaikha is a Social Work student at the University of the West of England and is currently completing her placement with Young Bristol from September 2026 to February 2027. She is passionate about working alongside young people and supporting their wellbeing.
Zulaikha was drawn to Young Bristol's commitment to empowering young people, building confidence, and creating safe, inclusive spaces across the city. She is particularly looking forward to meeting young people from different backgrounds, hearing their stories, and learning from the staff and volunteers who make such a positive difference.
Through her placement, Zulaikha hopes to develop her skills in communication and relationship-building while supporting Young Bristol's ongoing work. She is keen to bring enthusiasm, a willingness to learn, and a social work perspective to the team and be part of helping young people feel heard, valued, and supported.
Zulaikha will be based at several of our Youth Clubs and Youth Club on Wheels across the city, so be sure to say hello! π
