Siddrah was introduced to climbing in her early twenties by a friend. She quickly realised that she had a fear of falling spent many years trying to send a V0 and celebrates every small win!

She founded ClimbMuz in 2021 after being inspired and having lots of conversations with people about representation and how that impacts people accessing certain sports. This changed her perspective on how she viewed being a minority in the climbing world. Her aim is to create a safe space for Muslim women, ethnic minorities and POC to experience the wonderful world of climbing. To also highlight that the Muslim women are on a spectrum and that we are not all the same.

ClimbMuz has reached almost 300 predominantly Muslim women with consistent regular members turning up to each session and the impact that setting up ClimbMuz has had on the community has highlighted the importance of having this space.
