Woking Mosque welcomes Royal volunteers

The Earl and Countess of Wessex joined volunteers at the Shah Jahan Mosque in Woking on 21st May to help pack emergency food parcels for vulnerable people across the borough. They were shown the remarkable collaborative effort being undertaken by the entire mosque community and heard how people from every background and every faith are benefiting. With the generous support of local churches and businesses – and spearheaded by mosque manager Habib Shah – the response has already delivered more than 700 parcels to help local residents through the crisis. The Royal visitors also delivered a personal video message for the local and wider Muslim community to mark the end of Ramadan and the start of Eid Mubarak celebrations. Click here to view video.
