Incepted in the early 1980s, the North London Muslim Community Centre (NLMCC) sprung up as a response to the Muslim community's demand for services that catered to their social and welfare needs. Our journey commenced with the establishment of the Young Muslim Cricket Club in 1972, crafted for a band of ardent cricket enthusiasts. This club eventually transitioned into the North London Muslim Community Centre in 1980, when we started to procure funds from the Hackney Council to provide after school and weekend youth activities, all originating from the basement of St Thomas's church in Hackney. In a generous move in 1984, Hackney Council bestowed the NLMCC with the usage rights of 68 Cazenove Road, along with a grant for comprehensive refurbishment and construction of a single-storey hall situated in the property's garden. This property was amalgamated with 66 Cazenove Road in 1998, further expanding our presence.
In 1998, a small church was purchased by locals who lived in the local Biscot area of Luton. The area of Biscot had a growing population of Muslims with no Masjid within their vicinity. The church was used as a Masjid until 2005 when it was knocked down for a purposely built Masjid to be constructed. Prior to Ramadhan in 2006, the new Al-Jalal Masjid was opened and served a vast Muslim community that came not only from the Biscot area but also other areas of Luton to worship and attend the Masjid activities. To this present day the Masjid demands grows in terms of those wishing to come and worship in the Masjid.
On 21st September 2003, the Dallow Learning Community Centre (DLCC) was inaugurated, welcoming the public for the first time. The successful construction of the centre was made possible through contributions from Luton BC, SRB, EEDA alongside the Luton community.
