adrassah is proud to announce they successfully held their first Family Funday on Wednesday 12th April 2017.The event was attended by over 250 people from all across Burnley, Nelson and surrounding areas.
With a wide variety of stalls, from food through to clothing and home decor, there was something to please everyone. The items were kindly donated by generous friends of Imam Madrassah as well as local businesses. A big thank you to you all.
Activities were also made available for children such as face painting, henna painting, tombola as well as the super popular photo booth and fun props!
A great thank you to all the volunteers who supported the event with their amazing homemade food. The freshly baked homemade pizzas are always popular and sold out again within hours!
The event proved to be a success in more ways than one. We had numerous attendees from within the local
community, Muslim and non-Muslim, enquiring about our organisation. It was a great opportunity for community integration; inter-faith as well as intra-faith. Several Muslims belonging to other schools of thought approached us to discuss misconceptions, breaking down barriers and pursuing opportunities to embrace our commonalities; the basic fundamentals that make us Muslim.
All funds raised on the day are to support the ongoing fundraising work we have been carrying out in anticipation of our move to our new premises. Insha’Allah.
