Majdi is a doctor and scientist at the University of Cambridge and proudly raised in Grimsby.

He was motivated to join the Our Future board in its mission to build new models of harnessing community power that could be applied across the country. He trained in medicine at University College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine before working at the World Health Organization on ways to improve health for young people around the world.

He was a Frank Knox fellow at Harvard University before co-founding YLabs, a non-profit based in San Francisco and Rwanda combining design with public health to develop youth-friendly health care and OpenBiome, a biotech spun out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT developing medicines using gut bacteria. Majdi sits on the board of the Horizon Youth Zone in Grimsby.
