Young Muslim Writers Awards 2024

23 Nov 2024: It was an absolute pleasure attending the Young Muslim Writers Awards this weekend at the School of Advanced Study, University of London. Muslim Hands’ flagship literacy initiative is excellent platform that harnesses the creative talent of our young 5-16 year old Muslims, encouraging them to be bold and courageous with their pen, and unapologetically themselves. We were delighted to see such depth, wit and tenacity in their different forms of writing. 

A HUGE congratulations to all those young writers who were deservedly shortlisted for this prestigious award! 

It is essential that we keep working together to help nurture the literary talent that waits to be discovered in our community.

Thank you to Muslim Hands’ dedicated team for this wonderful opportunity.
