This is the “Dream and Believe Project”. We ask you to dream of the possibilities, give effort and have Tawakul that Allah (SWT) will bless us and allow us to deliver your aspirations!
No, this is not the same project as the beach mosque project. The beach site is overseen by a separate charity by different trustees and has no connection to AMIC.
We will be considering all available options for the future use of the Spital site before reaching a decision. It is intended that the site will be retained in part/some capacity as a prayer space but the final decision has not been made yet as we are still in the early stages of the relocation project.
The premises at Spital have not been suitable for both the religious and social requirements of the community for a prolonged period of time. The Covid-19 pandemic has re-iterated the shortcomings of the current premises and the need for a more suitable site for the needs of the community.
The purchase price of the building is £950,000. This will need to be paid as follows
The sum of £600,000 on the date of entry. The sum of £70,000 annually for 5 years commencing on the first anniversary of the date of entry.
Yes, we anticipate that we will require approximately between £150,000 to £200,000 initially for adaptation and refurbishment works. Depending on the potential use and requirements of the community, we may require further sums for future alterations.
We are commencing general fundraising to secure the required funds. We also hope to launch various fundraising initiatives whereby the community can come together and raise funds required for this project.
As a community project, we are particularly looking forward to working with individuals, youth, families and local organisations to reach our goals and raise funds. We also hope to reach out to external communities and past residents of Aberdeen.
Once we progress with the project, we will be engaging with volunteers and would love to tap into the local skills and expertise in various areas of the community so that we can run new and exciting programs and activities for the community. We will be establishing a volunteer pool where the community can engage with the day to day activities of the mosque and share in the rewards!
