Fash is the founder of The DataKirk SCIO which started in 2019, with the aim of closing both the attainment gap and data divide in Scotland. With the full support of its partners and sponsors, DataKirk has successfully grown and scaled from a small Edinburgh based social enterprise to a regionally impactful charity, improving healthy working lives and increasing upskill and employment opportunities for socially and economically deprived and disadvantaged groups. His purpose and passion lies in promoting diversity and inclusion within the digital and data economy and supporting DataKirk’s data enthusiasts to accessing and sustaining employment.

Prior to DataKirk, Fash worked in both the private sector in Data Management as well as third-sector organisation in Housing and Homeless management.
