The Missing Muslims: Unlocking British Muslim Potential

03 July

We are proud to support Citizens UK in their work on The Missing Muslims: Unlocking British Muslim Potential for the Benefit of All. This report, written by the Citizens Commission on Islam, Participation and Public Life, covers a range of issues that can hinder and support the presence of Muslims in British public life.

As Neil Jameson, Chief Executive of Citizens UK states in this foreword: ‘This Commission is absolutely not about seeking “special treatment” for British Muslims. Rather it is an ambitious and timely attempt to find ways of encouraging full and active participation in public life for all communities, challenging the systems and narratives that threaten this, and promoting the many examples of good practice by our Muslim communities that the Commission has heard up and down the country”

The report contains eighteen recommendations for stakeholders including civil society and the business sector, government and local authorities and Muslim communities in the UK.
