Over the next five years Right Start Foundation intend to strengthen its community work and explore new and unique projects. With this in mind, Right Start Foundation with the generous sponsorship of Sheikh Mubarak AbdelAziz AlHassawi would like to present the ‘Read and Rise’ Quran Competition. This competition is an endeavour to support and encourage all UK Muslims, of all ages, to memorise the Holy Quran. The ‘Read and Rise’ Quran Competition is providing a platform for all, to exhibit their talent and to encourage others who are beginning this journey. We hope this will strengthen and motivate Muslims to take a positive role in their faith and in the society in which they reside. Birmingham Quran Competition – It is with great pleasure we announce that the Midlands Quran competition took place on the 8th August 2010. It was a fantastic day with a great turn out.
