About Us

Singapore Muslim Students Overseas UK (SMSO UK) is a Network of Singaporean Muslim students and working professionals based in the UK.

Established in 2011 by co-founders Hidayah Amin and Nadiah Hashim Arrifin, SMSO UK had the main intention of providing a community for Singaporean Muslims abroad. We are now a proud network of Singaporean Muslim students and alumni pursuing an education and career primarily in the UK- though we do welcome and are happy to help anyone adventuring overseas!

Adjusting to a life away from home can be overwhelming – adapting to new environments, finding Halal food and forming your supportive Muslim community – which is where SMSO UK comes in!
