Message From Our Trustees
We have been holding Jumma Prayers in a rented hall for about 15 years. Over the last 10 years there has been an increase in number of Muslims, including families with children, in the area so now we have approximately 80-90 men only at Jumma Prayers. This number does increase over the holiday season due to holiday makers. We do not have appropriate prayer place for ladies and children, more importantly we do not have any place to teach Islamic Studies to our children.
After fund raising in 2019 we managed to purchase a builders yard and applied for planning permission for a Mosque but once the public found out about the Mosque we had an arson attack and the building was badly fire damaged. The police has declared it as a HATE CRIME.
In March 2024 we purchases a disused derelict old church next door to our previous demolished premises for £130,000 and obtained all the necessary planning.
The total budget is apprx. £550,000 of which we have £210,000. So we need to raise £340,000 to complete this Allah's House.
