WMWA

The Worcester Muslim Welfare Association Worcester was established in 1979. The members of the Muslim community worked hard to establish this association particularly for the provision of a place for worship. At present around 600 people can pray in the Ghousia Mosque at Tallow Hill. The Association have also established a library within the premises of the mosque. The mosque, which is mainly a religio-community centre for Pakistani origin families, provides facilities for teaching the Quran and Islamic Studies to a large number of children. The mosque faces the problem of scarcity of space and particularly at the time of Friday prayer, it is quite crowded.

It is also important in the context that the Muslim community in Worcester needs space to establish facilities for coffins and funeral ceremonies.

Funding

The Worcester Mosque relies on the generosity of the Muslim Community in Worcester and throughout the United Kingdom, who donate generously to run the Mosque. We do not rely on Government aids and funding.
