# Baytus Salaam
Baytus Salaam, formerly known as the Dacorum Bangladeshi Welfare Association, is a community-focused Islamic organisation based in Hemel Hempstead that has been serving the local Muslim population since 2005. Operating from the Highfield Community Centre in Fletcher Way, the organisation provides essential religious and community support services tailored to the diverse needs of Hemel Hempstead's Muslim residents.
The organisation's primary focus is facilitating Islamic worship and religious observance. They host regular Jummah (Friday) prayers at 1:30pm, alongside five daily prayer services with clearly communicated beginning and jamaat (congregation) times. This accessibility is enhanced through their mobile platform, allowing community members to check prayer times conveniently on their phones.
What distinguishes Baytus Salaam is their commitment to extending their community impact beyond prayer facilities. Currently undergoing a transition from their previous branding, they're actively fundraising to support the management of their new premises and to develop a wider range of support services for the local community. This expansion demonstrates their ambition to become a more comprehensive community hub, rather than merely a prayer venue.
The organisation actively engages with their community through social media, maintaining a Facebook presence with regular updates and fundraising campaigns. Their transparent approach to their expansion plans and inviting community participation in their transition reflects their grassroots, locally-minded ethos.
