“Being able to return to my old primary school to teach children about financial education has been an incredibly rewarding experience. As I walked through the familiar halls and classrooms, memories of my own time as a student flooded back, but this time I was on the other side of the desk, ready to impart knowledge and share my own experiences with the next generation. This volunteering experience has been possible thanks to Legal & General’s partnership with RedSTART Educate, a charity focused on teaching children about financial education, which is critical in today's world. Many young people finish school without a basic understanding of how to manage money, budget effectively, or save for the future. By introducing these concepts at a young age, we can help set them up for financial success later in life. The students were eager to learn and ask questions, showing a genuine interest in the topic. We discussed the importance of saving money, making smart spending decisions, and the power of compound interest. It was heart-warming to see their eyes light up as they grasped these concepts and began to think about how they could apply them to their own lives. This volunteering experience was also a way to give back to the community that had shaped me as a child. By returning to my old school and sharing my time and knowledge with the students, I was able to show my gratitude for the opportunities and education I had received there. It felt like a full-circle moment. As I left the school that day, I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. I had shared my knowledge, connected with the students, and hopefully planted seeds of financial literacy that will continue to grow and flourish in the years to come. Volunteering with RedSTART through Legal & General was truly a rewarding experience, one that I will cherish for years to come.” - Tamanna Ahad, Senior Finance Analyst.

“My story is deeply rooted in my Jamaican heritage. My grandparents were part of the Windrush Generation, migrating to the UK in the 1950s and settling in Nottingham. The values of service and community were instilled in me from a young age. As a Foundation Governor of a school, I continue this legacy, working to ensure that children from disadvantaged backgrounds receive equal access to quality education. My journey to leadership has not been without its challenges. Like many black women, I have faced systemic barriers, often having to work twice as hard to gain half the recognition and passed over for opportunities in favour of those with less experience or qualifications. Yet, my determination and my refusal to be defined by these limitations have led me to succeed at Legal & General, an environment committed to changing this narrative. Here, I’ve emphasised the importance of community in the workplace—recognising that true progress comes when diversity and inclusion are deeply integrated practices. My career has been marked by a drive to create opportunities for others and offer mentorship. As I often say, ‘To move forward, you have to give back.’ Success, in my eyes, is not measured solely by personal accolades but by what I can accomplish for those who come after me. I’m especially mindful of the world my daughter is about to enter. I hope she will be judged by her merits, not her appearance. For me, Black History Month is not a mere box to check—it’s deeply personal. It reminds us that people are not defined solely by their jobs; everyone has a story and something to give.” – Sabrina Operational Resilience Analyst.
