The biggest cost of the event is the license for the grounds, along with marketing, materials, and preparation. Therefore, we kindly request attendees to make a small donation to help cover these costs so that we don't end up in debt and can continue to bring you this celebration every Eid, Insha Allah.

The Masjid Silvertown event is run entirely by volunteers who sacrifice their time to serve the community in seeking the pleasure of Allah. Registering online helps us know our expected numbers and how many people to cater for, ensuring the event runs safely. It also means we can notify you of any important announcements or changes.
