P•r• 1.20 We have been conducting Our training and teaching sessions which have moved from online to face to face as well now that covid restrictions are no longer required. They continue to be available for the wider community to join in. These sessions are broadcast live on YouTube and stay on our YouTube channel for anyone to benefft from it. We have beeen 50 to 100 members of public attending these sessions live, which take place Ihree times a week. In additbon, our YouTube channel subscription has surpassed hundreds, thus benefrtting a wide range of public viewers. These sessions are focused on explaining the message of Islam in clear and simple terms to dispel any misconceptions about Islam and at the same time to develop positive communty relations with a view to building stronger and safer communrties across the country. We have reached out to the primary schools in various locations up and down the country providing them with free literature to aid their teachers in teaching RE classes as vlell helping and supporting them in visits and tours to various Islamic ntreS to help develop mutual understsnding and better communi relations.
Due to the sign[finCe and benefit for the public one of our sessions that was recognised by the mainstream media and BBC Scotland's Sunday faith programme broadcast on 14th Feb 2021 our Friday sermon on the topic "Commonalities betWn Islam. Christianty and Judaism Social media interactions have provided an easily accessible platform for the Muslim community members as well as the wider communty to engage in a mutually respectable manner. Many questions have been answered and myths busted about the misconceptions about Islam. These objectives in mind we have been able to produce about 50 small booklets and the complete translation of the Quran in English language. tailored to the audience in UK. A complete biography of the last messenger Muhummed Pbuh has been compiled as well in order to present the lrfe story of the Messenger for wider communty with a view to spreading awareness about the true nature of his person thus dispelling any misconceptions and helping build stronger community relations based on eviden arKI mutual respect. We have managed to develop gocKI relations with various communty organisations in order to fom partnerships for the furtherance of our objecttves. Our partners include the ntral mosque of Birmingham, radio salaam Birmingham, Airdrie Mosque in Scotland, FACIC a communty organisation in Scotland that works with the local council to dispel misconceptlon about Islam by organising community open days and provMJing food bank and counselling services to youth. We have also managed to form a very strong partnership with another charity named North Lanarkshire Muslim Women's and family Alliance (NLMWFA).
We provide all literature, pop up exhibition stands, posters and other printing material to FACIC and NLMWFA to facilitate Ihe conduct of their activities. We are open to helping all such organisations up and down the country. We have been providing literature and copies of Quran to various prisons in UK on request of the prison services.
