PLANNING APPLICATION

Solihull Central Masjid & Community Centre established in 2016, submitted a planning application to replace the existing temporary marquee with a more permanent building. Please note this is NOT an application for a new mosque. We are an established place of worship and the Mosque has been in existence for almost ten years. ُ

Details of our application can be found as per the link below:

The purpose of the project is not to increase capacity but simply improve and enhance current temporary structures in place. It will be keeping in line with nature of the surroundings.

The proposal represents an initiative that:

Our Masjid reflects a positive environment that complies with an Islamic atmosphere and allows its congregation and visitors to fully enjoy their presence at the Masjid.

We aim to foster unity and a sense of inclusion among all members of the Muslim community in a manner that is respectful of the diversity of the local Muslim community and not discriminate on the basis of madhhab, gender, race, nationality, ethnic origin, citizenship, political affiliation, or economic status.

• will provide significant social and environmental benefits to the Solihull community.
• Will address the critical need for a dedicated community space.
• Will foster greater social cohesion and well-being.

Its design is both innovative and sensitive to the Green belt setting carefully integrating with the natural landscape and preserving the character of the area.

• Sustainability is at the heart of this project, with environmentally conscious materials, low impact construction methods, strong emphasis on biodiversity and Green space preservation.
• The development not only meets local needs but also enhances the environmental value of the site, creating a welcoming space for residents and visitors alike - many of whom currently lack access to such vital facilities.
• It is a forward thinking, responsible proposal that balances community development with environmental stewardship.

Below are brief details of our proposal.
