The local Masjid has always been the hub of the community. From the time of the Messenger (peace be upon him), it has played a pivotal role in the community. At any one time, it was a place of worship, a sports hall, a court, a place of marriage, a place of gatherings for funerals, an advice centre, a welfare centre, and so much more.

Some of the common uses and activities that we wish to do in our community centre include:

Prayers: To act of an overspill if required for prayers

Religious Education: To offer classes and programs for individuals to learn more about Islam, including the Quran, Hadith, and Islamic history.

Provide wedding, Nikkah and Janaza facilities

Community Outreach: To engage in outreach activities to promote understanding and dialogue between Muslims and people of other faiths. This may include Interfaith events, community service projects, and educational seminars.

Social Events: Host social events, such as dinners, picnics, and cultural festivals, to bring the community together and build relationships.

Youth Programs: Offer programs for children, teenagers and young adults, including Quran memorization classes, Islamic studies, and youth groups. This can also include tuition classes for 11+, GCSE and SATs, basic English and Arabic.

Creche facilities.

Counselling Services: Offer counselling services to individuals and families dealing with personal or family issues, such as marital problems or substance abuse. This can also include other professional services such as legal and medical.

Sports and recreation: Provide sports facilities, such as cricket, wrestling, archery and the like, where members can participate in recreational activities and stay physically active.

Charity Work: Engage in charitable activities, such as food banks, fundraising events, and disaster relief efforts, to help those in need.

Overall, serve as important hubs for Muslims to come together, worship, learn, and engage with the wider community.

Help us in establishing this hub in our local Masjid.
