Donation received during the year was utilised to creating and hosting events that allowed us to give back to the community and continue to send the message that the Masjid is there for the community to come back and rely on them. Things such as fundraisers and open days at the Masjid where the local community can come down and talk about what the masjid can do to become better in terms of services and opportunities that allows the community to bond together.

Later part of 2018 we started work with demolish of the old Masjid and start of the new multipurpose Masjid rebuilt project which should inshallah be completed in 2020 and all funded by the donation received by the wider community.

Whilst the new Masjid rebuild construction is going on we had to secure temporary premises, so the community can carry on with prayers 5 times a day throughout the year. Prayer services for special occasions such as Eid prayers and children’s madrasah classes.
