Library/Bookshop
Due to popular demand the community centre will provide the first dedicated Islamic Bookshop/library. Books, clothing and other merchandise will be available to cater for the needs of the community.
Floor Plan
The above plans are still in draft and can be altered with consultation with the management team. The first phase will provide all the ground floor facilities and in the future plans would be made to erect a second floor. The upper floor would have the following facilities.
Evening Arabic/Islamic Studies Classes
The classes would be focussed around the 5-15 age groups in teaching Islamic studies and Arabic. The classes will also accompany their secular education in providing out of school homework classes and tuition on subjects they may find difficult
YYI Youth Club
The Youth Club will have a base to run its weekly circles for boys aged 8-14 and 14+. The youth club will extend to females and separate arrangements will be made to run their circles. The educational circles focus on a number of important issues including religious and contemporary discussions.
Mum's Time out Classes
An ideal time for mum's to focus on themselves to learn various skills and gain essential knowledge. Classes on tajweed, Urdu, Arabic, computing, sewing would be arranged.
