Asalaamu Alaikum. We invite you to participate in an important survey conducted by the Muslim Sports Foundation in partnership with Mind. Our goal is to better understand how mental health is perceived within British Muslim communities. Whether you or a loved one has been affected by mental health challenges, or if it hasn't touched your life directly, your perspective is incredibly valuable. The survey will take just a few minutes, and your input will help shape vital conversations and future support for British Muslims. Your voice can make a real difference—thank you for taking the time to share your insights! Link is in our bio! #MSF #MentalHealth JazakAllah Khair.

MSF are pleased to announce our latest partnership with the Peterborough United Foundation. We look forward to developing working with the foundation to widen participation in Peterborough. The city has been a great place for some of our most successful Ansar projects which has helped the most marginalised access safe and inclusive spaces of practice. With this in mind, we want to develop the momentum of sport and physical activity in Peterborough. By joining forces with the Peterborough United Foundation, we want to ensure that together we can develop opportunities for all communities, all ages, all abilities and all backgrounds. #msf #pufc #partnership
