april 2025 updates

Assalaamu-alaykum,

We thought it would be a good idea to share behind the scenes updates of our work along with some valuable resources and opportunities.

We’ve had a busy and inspiring month — lots of travel, powerful conversations, and exciting new connections.

Our Partner Updates

This month, we had the pleasure of visiting KMWA Gillingham (Friday 11th), ISOG Gloucester (Friday 18th), and Sunnah Trust (Sunday 27th).

It was encouraging to observe the positive environments being created and the genuine efforts being made to keep young people engaged and included.

These organisations demonstrated high levels of youth engagement — something many mainstream youth clubs often struggle to achieve despite having robust policies.

A particular highlight was ISOG Gloucester, where the openness and willingness of teenagers to share personal experiences reflected a strong sense of trust and inclusion.

Upcoming Workshops

We’re currently preparing for our upcoming training and coaching period , which will begin in late May and continue throughout the month of June.

We have four remaining dates available, so if you’re interested in booking a one-day workshop for your local Masjid/organisation, get in touch to secure your slot.

Snowdonia Trek: A Collaborative Fundraising Initiative

Planning is well underway for the upcoming Snowdonia Trek on Saturday 17th May insha-Allah, with focus on logistics and the sign-up process. The trek is designed to support partner organisations by enabling them to raise funds for their own projects. It’s a collaborative effort that strengthens community ownership and sustainability.

If you’re interested in joining us to fundraise for us or your Youth Hub visit the Eventbrite page here for more info.

Working Together Across Continents

On 24th April, we had a call with an organisationbased in Indonesia. They’ve requested our support for their network of 50 institutes, recognising our leadership and experience in Muslim youth engagement.

This reflects the growing international reach and credibility of our important work alhamdulillah.
