Dr Sofia Buncy MBE DL

Last week @MWIPproject were delighted to welcome TRH’s the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge to our community re-entry hub @khidmat_centres. This is a welcomed recognition of ground-breaking ‘BAME’ grassroots practice within the CJS & culturally appropriate prisoner resettlement.

Congratulations to Huddersfield Woodscape on receiving their KAVS. Testament to the wonderful work the volunteers undertake to conserve ancient Woodlands across the Deighton, Sheepridge and Bradley areas.

It was the honour of my life to move the Loyal Address -the first Muslim to do so. This moment belongs to the people of Bradford West. Their trust and faith in me made it possible. An opportunity of a lifetime. A privilege I owe to Bradford and to Britain. Full speech 🔽

@khidmat_centres is a polling station today. If you are coming to the centre to vote, please be respectful of other voters, the on-site staff, and candidates. This is your opportunity to take part in an open democratic process. Please exercise your democratic right peacefully.

We were honoured to welcome the new Dean of Bradford, Jonathan Triffitt, and Rev. Canon Ned Lunn to the Khidmat Centres this week. We look forward to working together and continuing to strengthen faith and community connections across Bradford.

#EidMubarak to all those celebrating, particularly staff and residents in @hmpps. Remembering those observing Eid in prison and away from loved ones. May the almighty accept your prayers and surround you with resilience and mercy.

This Ramadan, the Muslim Women in Prison Project facilitated Ramadan & Eid packs for 11 of @hmpps female prisons. This effort was 100% community funded & we are proud of the growth & ownership of this initiative. Thank you to our partners @IslamicReliefUK & all community donors.

The Midland Hotel in Bradford was bursting at the seams yesterday for @NazShahBfd book launch for ‘Honoured’. A story of immense challenge, courage and perseverance. Thank you for breaking the silence @NazShahBfd & gifting courage and hope to so many women.

On the International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM, we stood united to raise awareness and reaffirm our commitment to ending FGM and protecting the rights of women and girls. Thank you to the Lord Mayor of Bradford, Cllr Mohammed Shafiq, for supporting this important event.

A powerful discussion on International Day for Zero Tolerance against Female Genital Mutilation. Current estimates show that over 230 million women & girls have been affected/at risk. Thanks to Princess Dorcus MBE, @saffysaffron, Cllr Dodds, @Riz1Rehman for your important work.
