The Centre in Bellenden Road provides a place where Muslim women can feel safe and comfortable; where they can meet socially, attend classes and workshops and receive advice and support. The centre has developed over the years, responding to the changing needs of the community.
During the daytime, some of the activities that take place are for women only. At times, however, the programme of events caters for the interests of the whole family.
Those attending the Centre come from all over the world including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, Bosnia, Middle East, Somalia, Mauritius, India and the Caribbean. Islam is central to the culture of all members of the Association and those visiting the centre can feel free to observe the customs and traditions of their faith, without restriction or embarrassment
Over the years the social and political climate changes.
SMWA has extended its role, and this now includes:
Reviewing the programme it provides to ensure it meets the evolving need
of Muslim community.
Promoting greater understanding of the Muslim culture and languages, both
inside and outside the community.
Representing the views of Muslim community in local and national consultations.
