Girls’ Youth Club

We are excited to announce the start of our Girls’ Youth Club – a monthly program designed specifically for young Muslimah girls aged 13-17 in the Bristol community.

At this club, we aim to create a safe, supportive space where girls can connect with their faith, build strong friendships, and engage in activities tailored to their interests and needs. Each meeting will feature:

  • Discussions on relevant topics impacting young Muslim women
  • Educational sessions to foster personal and spiritual growth
  • Opportunities for community service and giving back
  • Fun games, activities, and social time to build relationships

Our goal is to empower these young girls, strengthen their Muslim identities, and provide mentorship during these formative years. We want them to develop confidence, resilience, and a sense of belonging.

Meetings will be held on the first Saturday of every month from 3-5 PM at: Greenbank Masjid Castle Green Building, Greenbank Road, Bristol BS5 6HE.

Space is limited, so register your daughter today using the form below. You can also contact 07516 373795 for more information.

Find a Spouse Matrimony Service

And one of His signs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves so that you may find comfort in them. And He has placed between you compassion and mercy. Surely in this are signs for people who reflect.

Surah Rum verse 21

Greenbank Masjid is thrilled to introduce our commitment to helping our Muslim brothers and sisters complete their deen by entering into matrimony.

Our aim is to provide a service that assists not only those looking to get married for the first time, but also those who have experienced the difficulties of divorce or widowhood. We recognise that it has become more and more challenging to find suitable partners.

Exciting Progress: Greenbank Masjid Women’s Section Renovation

We are thrilled to share an update on the ongoing renovations of the Women’s Section at Greenbank Masjid. The project is moving forward at a steady pace, and we wanted to keep you informed about the progress we’ve made so far.

Completed Work

Our dedicated team has been working diligently to improve the facilities. Here’s what we’ve accomplished:

  • Removed carpets and addressed dry rot issues in the prayer hall
  • Dismantled the outdated wudhu and toilets section
  • Initiated the installation of block and beam flooring
  • Commenced construction of the new wudhu & toilets area

Your Support Matters

This project is made possible thanks to the generous support of our community. We kindly ask for your continued contributions to help us complete this important renovation. You can donate in two ways:

  1. Use our Total Giving link
  2. Donate directly to GBM, referencing ‘GBM Projects’

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal of providing an enhanced prayer space for the women of our community.

We appreciate your patience during this renovation period and look forward to unveiling the newly improved Women’s Section. Stay tuned for more updates as we progress!

If you have any questions about the project or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Thank you for your ongoing support and duas.
