# Greenwich Islamic Centre
Greenwich Islamic Centre is a purpose-built mosque located in London SE18 7DW, serving as the primary Islamic place of worship for the boroughs of Greenwich, Bexley, and Lewisham. Established to meet the spiritual needs of the local Muslim community, the centre has grown significantly since its modest beginnings in the 1970s when worshippers gathered in private homes and church halls.
The mosque provides comprehensive Islamic services and facilities for daily prayers, including five daily prayer times with designated prayer halls. It offers Jumuah (Friday) prayers with two separate sessions to accommodate large congregations, led by a resident imam. The centre serves as a community hub for religious education and spiritual development, offering programmes such as Quranic study circles, including their featured Seerah (biography) of Prophet Muhammad courses.
What distinguishes Greenwich Islamic Centre is its ongoing expansion project to enhance facilities and accessibility. The centre is investing in developing four additional prayer halls, a minaret, library, offices, disabled lift access, and a conference room. Having already spent £1.3 million on infrastructure improvements, the centre actively seeks community donations to complete the remaining £600,000 of work, demonstrating commitment to serving the growing Muslim population with modern, accessible facilities.
The mosque functions as both a spiritual sanctuary and community gathering space, promoting Islamic learning and strengthening community bonds amongst local Muslims.
