Story

Following strong winds and heavy rainfall over several days, a significant portion of the Masjid roof sustained devastating damage as a strong gust of wind it blew off in the early hours of Monday 21st February. The continued rainfall on the already damaged roof has caused further damage to internal structures.

We would like to start by thanking all those who have supported our emergency appeal.

Unfortunately, we have received some more devastating news. During the initial inspection of the damage, it was identified that the remaining roof which is over 60 years old was vulnerable. An additional survey of this roof found the entire Masjid roof is at the end of its working life and needing urgent replacement. The roof survey report can be viewed at: MES Roof Report

The total cost of the roof project will now be *£160k*.

Fundraising efforts are ongoing, but we need YOUR support in reaching this target urgently within the next few weeks

Please suport the Masjid generously through your generous donations, sharing this campaign with your family and friends, and your humble duas.

UPDATE: ALHAMDULLILLAH THROUGH YOUR GENEROSITY WE RAISED £8000 ON THE 27TH NIGHT OF RAMADHAN.
