The MCB thanks the Lord Mayor for a wonderful Eid Celebration at the historic Old Library at the Guildhall.

As part of the evening reception the Lord Mayor, Michael Mainelli (the 695th Lord Mayor of the City of London), shared his recognition of the great contribution of British Muslims to London, of the wonderful diversity of communities and shared his appreciation for those who had completed fasting in the holy month of Ramadan.
 

Our MCB leadership team joined heads of State, NGOs, global actors and influencers in Riyadh to mark the Golden Jubilee – 50th Anniversary of the Islamic Development Bank with the theme ‘Cherishing Our Past, Charting our Future’.

The MCB congratulate our affiliates Strive UK  for their fantastic Sibghah Literary Festival for Children, the first of its kind in the UK. 

The event aimed to encourage and inspire young people to share their stories, noting the important and power of content, creativity and changing narratives.
 

This transformative event brings together visionary leaders, thinkers, and change-makers, united under the banner of "Leading Change Together".

With a growing population in diversity and numbers, we are still seeing a rise in trends of hate crime, islamophobia and long-standing issues of social deprivation.

This day will cover what work we need to do, to tackle the critical issues facing British Muslims, considering our economic contribution and political, social and cultural capital.
