2024 Annual report
Chairman’s Report
The past year has been another period of steady activity for the Centre and our charity. Thanks to the dedication of our volunteers, all events and programmes continued to run smoothly and safely.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all our members and regular attendees for their ongoing support. Our volunteers have once again ensured that prayer sessions are well organised and punctual. We are proud to see our community come together, and we look forward to continuing to support the needs of our growing Centre.
Vice Chairman’s Report
Our events this year have continued to be well attended and appreciated by members and the wider community. Feedback collected at several events has been very encouraging and has provided helpful suggestions for further improvements.
Ramadan was a particularly active and inspiring period, with well-attended Tarawih prayers and Iftar gatherings that brought the community together each evening. Our regular Friday Zikr sessions and talks have also remained popular, continuing to foster spiritual engagement and connection among attendees.
We are deeply grateful to our volunteers and all those who contribute their time, effort, and resources. Their commitment ensures that the Centre’s programmes and events run successfully throughout the year.
Treasurer’s Report
We remain committed to providing high-quality services to our members while keeping costs manageable. Volunteers have played a vital role in minimising expenses and reducing waste across the Centre.
Ramadan has again been an important period for community engagement, with Tarawih prayers, Iftar gatherings, and other activities helping to bring people together while supporting the Centre’s ongoing operations. The dedication and generosity of our volunteers and community members continue to be essential to the success of all our initiatives.
