## **Achievements and Performance** 

The Sufi Hub has engaged the community consistently with weekly gatherings of spiritual reflection at local Slough Borough Council facilities, these gatherings invite families, including men, women and children providing a haven for spiritual and mental growth. 

Having previously worked in partnership with other local charities, we held our first independent courses through the year aiding the community with preparation for the holy month of Ramadan with tips and advice on fasting and spiritual activities, as well as promoting a healthy lifestyle, community cohesion and consistency in worship. Other courses and lectures executed include the interpretation of the sacred Islamic texts including the Quran and hadith (sayings) of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). 

We also successfully organised and executed a large-scale event promoting good character in Islam, exemplifying the prophetic traits as well as spiritual growth and a sense of community. 

We have consistently arranged theme-based events with dissemination of knowledge, according to the significance of the Islamic calendar date, arranging food and get together promoting community cohesion and understanding. 

We have also been involved in aiding other charities and volunteering for supporting the needy.
