# Peacehaven Mosque
Peacehaven Mosque, formally known as the Peace Community Centre, is an Islamic place of worship and community hub serving Peacehaven, Newhaven, Saltdean, Rottingdean, Woodingdean and surrounding areas in East Sussex. The mosque recently reopened following refurbishment, with daily prayers now resuming at their premises on Phyllis Avenue.
The organisation's primary mission centres on promoting authentic Islamic teachings and fostering unity amongst the Muslim community across the region. Beyond religious services, Peacehaven Mosque actively builds bridges with all communities, positioning itself as an inclusive spiritual and social resource. The centre facilitates regular congregational prayer, religious education, and community engagement programmes.
What distinguishes Peacehaven Mosque is their commitment to ethical financing practices. The organisation acquired their property through a Qardh al-hasan (interest-free Islamic loan) rather than conventional mortgage arrangements, reflecting their adherence to Islamic principles. This transparent, values-driven approach extends to their community fundraising, where they openly communicate financial needs and encourage donations from supporters to complete their refurbishment project.
As a registered charity (number 1184560), the mosque demonstrates formal accountability and governance standards. Their multilingual website content and inclusive messaging indicate a welcoming approach to both established and new members of the Muslim community. The organisation emphasises collective responsibility, inviting volunteers, participants, and donors to contribute towards their vision of a strengthened community centre.
