Objectives and activities Muslim Women's Association of Edinburgh (MWAE) was established in 2005 by a small group of like-minded women who saw the need to provide social and educational activities for the Muslim women and their families in Edinburgh and Lothians. Their vision was to improve the lives of our women by holding community events in an environment conducive to our Islamic values that helped our women raise their children with knowledge of Islamic principles while still interacting with topical issues and trends. Through our twenty years of serving our Muslim community, MWAE have supported and trained male and female volunteers to deliver weekly and monthly projects like our Toddler & youth groups, Homework club, Little Muslims Arabic school and sports & well being sessions. But more than that we have empowered our women to lead projects inspired by their experiences of living in Edinburgh. MWAE contribute to outreach projects to represent our Muslim voices and promote good relations between families and communities within the Edinburgh and Lothian area. We engage in inter-faith dialogue and have held International Women's Day events with the Japanese and African women's groups.

Charitable purposes: To advance knowledge and education for Muslim women and their children in Edinburgh in a global effort to improve their lives.

Summary of the main activities in relation to these objects:

MWAE organise educational talks delivered by experts in their field such as medical practitioners talking about puberty or pre and post natal advice. We also hold discussion groups for relevant topics like registering to vote.

Our activities include sports events which encourage awareness about maintaining good health and fitness for our members and their families.

The youth groups always try and give the attendees a chance to have discussion time as well as activity time so the young people have a mentor to help them navigate issues relating to them.

Through educating the women and youth in our community we empower them to be more confident as Muslims living in a Scottish community and contributing to it.

APPENDIX 1 Achievements and performance Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the financial period Our Muslim Women's Association of Edinburgh {MWAE} has worked through another busy year delivering our projects for the benefrt of our Edinburgh members and wider community. The women's badminton sessions run more regularly now with at least 2 sessions a month. Attendees only pay for the session they attend which allows ft)r greater flexibility. MWAE also helped wth the admin and promotion of'women's non-impact Kick Boxing. for our members to attend. Our Barakah youth group- for girfs and boys from 6 years old to 10 years old - held several sessions over the year induding a trip to Dynamic Earth which was very popular. For the pre- teens and teens, MWAE delivered educational art sessions as wdl as a 'Women's football Euro play offin November followed by a 'Winter Wonder day out in December. For the very young pre-schooler5 our Toddler group ran regularly on Mondays in term time th special holiday 5ession5 where school-age siblings were also allowed to visit the group during the winter holiday5. We find these sessions are very helpful for families during the holidays. Our Homework Club continued to run weekly sessicfis for schookage children throughout term time to help increase their confidence in tackling school work. A new initiative to bring together women new to Islam began in Oetober 2024 called 'Revert Reflections". Once estsblished the group met once every two weeks and was well attended. The group was set up in response to a need for women new to Islam wanting to meet other women lo discuss tcpieal issues. In addition to this MWAE also organised a"Sisters' Coffee Mcfning" which was a casual meet-up for women whenever a small group were avaiL2ble to meet local to the city eentre. Another MWAE group, 'Sisters' Social", organised to meet on Fridays lo enjoy Chai and Chat in a casual non structured environment. Our"MWAE Singles. group ran 4 sessions with talks for Single Muslim men and women to leam about how to embark on a successful marriage with Islamic foundations. Attendees were vetted to ensure they were single and seriously looking for a lrfe partner for marriage. The MWAE Singles team endeavoured to make the sessions welcoming and safe space for attendees to meet other single adults in a comfortable Islamic environment. Our stand-alone talks in 2024 included a 'Voting Workshop" in June, a"Period Workshop" for pre-teen and teen girls in October, a "Boys to Men" talk for pre-teen and teens boys in September, an art session for all in August, and an Eid Charity fair. Our Charity Fair and regular bake sales raised funds for the needy. Our AGM in August was a well attended event with food and entertainment .
