Masjid Annoor

We are a volunteer sector sponsored and supported by charities and donations

Annoor Masjid & Annoor Cultural & Community Centre started in 1993 with a small group of Muslims using the Acton Town Hall for Friday prayers. This initiative was inspired by the need to provide adequate facilities for the local Muslim community to worship, observe its religious festivals and interact with the wider society.

Several months after its formation, ACCC moved to the Bromyard Sports Centre in Acton Vale. This premises was utilised for another four years before the venue was sold by its owners.

Following the sale of the Bromyard Centre, Annoor moved to the Janet Adegoke Leisure Centre , also in Shepherds Bush. After three years that Centre was also sold and Annoor returned to the Acton Town Hall, where it had all began. Annoor continued to utilise the Town Hall until December 2005. This is when after intense negotiation, the purchase of 58-70 Church Road, previously owned by the Royal British Legion, was completed. No longer would we need to request the use of alternative facilities for the observance of worship and prayer.

As a result, Annoor’s membership and activities have increased considerably. In addition to the observance of Eid festivals and provision of marital counselling, Annoor continues to raise significant aid to those in need in the United Kingdom and disaster victims abroad
