Nighat Malik comes with an international experience of working with all-age groups in the United States, Pakistan and Britain. She retired from Worcester College in Oxford after working for 23 years in the bursary, preceded by a 5-year tenure at St. Hugh’s. Given her extensive experience at these two colleges, she opted to work with the student support department at Cherwell School. Since her retirement, Nighat has been working with social work-centred voluntary groups helping the homeless in East Oxford besides holding membership on the organising committee of the Seven Roads Group in Summertown—the most proactive voluntary group in Oxford.
