Put my name forward

Small hours,
real difference.

Since 1998, Karima has been built by the people who use it. We are volunteers who turn up for the reward of serving their community for the sake of Allah. We are always on the lookout for new volunteers, reach out to us today to get involved.

Big events

Something else

Good at design, accounts, fixing things, driving, photography? Karima needs skills as much as hours.

Setting up the main hall

Help set out and pack down the main hall for Jummah, weekly classes and events: chairs, prayer space, sound and signage.

Suits practical people; regular slots or one-off days.

How it works.

Every volunteer gets an induction for their role, and roles involving children or vulnerable adults require a DBS check.

There’s no minimum commitment beyond honesty: tell us what you can give, an hour a week or one event a year, and we’ll plan around it.
