Mr Fahim Fazil
Learn about Mr Fahim Fazil, a peer support facilitator at CAL, who draws on his own recovery journey to help young adults thrive in their mental health journeys.

Mr Fahim Fazil is a Programme Manager with Caregivers Alliance Limited’s (CAL) support group programme, Circles of Resilience, which offers a safe and supportive space for peers to connect and share their recovery journeys. Held monthly with regular, familiar groups, these sessions foster a sense of belonging and trust, allowing participants to build meaningful, close-knit relationships. By showing up for themselves and their peers, they support each other to progress in their mental health journeys together. Fahim facilitates peer support circles attended by young adults struggling with mental health, and occasionally leads workshops and other peer-driven engagement activities, all aimed at empowering peers – individuals who are diagnosed with mental health conditions or seeking support - to lead thriving lives.
A person in recovery himself, Fahim’s battle with depression for the last decade has led him to discover various routes of recovery, igniting his desire to give back to the community. Fahim is an avid writer and a fur parent to his cat, Lucky.
