About Our Founder and CEO
Nothando Mpala is the visionary founder of InspireHer Global, a social enterprise dedicated to empowering young women in UK and Zambia through education, personal development, and business initiatives.
Her journey began with a deep passion for creating spaces where young women could connect, learn, and be inspired to dream beyond limitations. From hosting grassroots community events to building large-scale programmes, she has always believed in the power of opportunity and mentorship to transform lives.
For over 10 years, Nothando served as both an Advisory Member and Trustee for the Young Women’s Trust, while also contributing to other women-led organisations where she championed women’s voices, advised on youth-focused strategies, and influenced change at policy level. She is also an active member of the UN Women UK community, further strengthening her advocacy for women and girls globally.
Over the years, she has worked with leading global brands and organisations including Nike, Google, Coca- Cola, YouTube, and the Mayor of London’s Events Programmes where she honed her skills in project and events management. This wealth of experience, combined with her heart for philanthropy and youth empowerment, led to the creation of InspireHer Global, which now supports a growing community of over 165 young women.
As a proud Zambian and Zimbabwean woman, Nothando is committed to breaking barriers, amplifying voices, and ensuring that the next generation of women have the tools, confidence, and support to shape their futures.
Our Senior Team
At InspireHer Global, our team is the heartbeat of our mission. What makes us truly unique is that many of our team members started as InspireHer girls themselves young women who joined our community, found inspiration, and grew in confidence through our programmes. Today, they are passionate changemakers dedicated to creating opportunities for others. Their journeys reflect the very impact we aim to make: transforming potential into leadership, and inspiration into action. Together, they bring lived experience, passion, and commitment to building a brighter future for the next generation of young women in UK and Zambia.
