Volunteer

I have been working as a volunteer for the past 15 years, assisting the local community  through a Mosque.  Here I have been involved in planning and carrying out courses for the youth and adults.  I am also involved the the Funeral department.  This involves preparing the female bodies for burial, interacting and supporting family members. 


I also run teaching classes to teach members of the public the Islamic method of bathing and shrouding the deceased. 


I an still active in these different activities, giving what spare time I have to help.
