# High Barnet Islamic Centre
High Barnet Islamic Centre, formerly known as Darul Noor, is a community-focused Islamic organisation established in 2020 and based in Barnet, North London. The centre serves the local Muslim community and their families with a comprehensive range of religious, educational, sporting and social activities.
Beyond traditional prayer facilities with multiple Jummah services, the centre distinguishes itself through its commitment to holistic community wellbeing. It operates diverse programming including youth sports such as badminton, ping-pong, kick boxing and basketball, alongside wellness activities like yoga and stretching classes. Educational offerings span homework clubs for young people and dedicated safeguarding training for those working with children and vulnerable adults.
What sets this centre apart is its emphasis on practical life skills and safety: residents can access food safety and fire safety courses. The organisation also fosters community cohesion through cultural and social events including market bazaar gatherings, arts and crafts workshops, calligraphy classes, children's Nasheeds sessions, and communal iftar dinners during Ramadan. Recent additions include family-friendly events like their inaugural High Tea Experience.
The centre actively addresses a significant community need—reducing its £550,000 debt—through transparent fundraising appeals offering Qard Al-Hasana (interest-free) loans. This demonstrates financial accountability whilst maintaining its mission to serve as an accessible, welcoming hub for spiritual development, learning and social connection.
