Leader of the Council celebrates the contribution of Manchester's Muslim communities ahead of Islamophobia Awareness Month.

Cllr Bev Craig said:

"Manchester is a city which is proud of its diversity and celebrates the role which all of our communities play in making our city the phenomenal place it is. This very much includes Muslim communities which make up a significant proportion of our population and contribute enormously to city life. 

"This Islamophobia Awareness Month it feels more important than ever to celebrate the contribution our Muslim communities make to the city. We will not tolerate hatred directed towards them, or any communities, from those seeking to sow division. This is a city where we stand together against prejudice and discrimination."
