Ramadan Giving Day 28: Muslim Council of Britain Centre for Media Monitoring

The Centre for Media Monitoring was set up to promote fair, accurate and responsible reporting of Muslims and Islam in the media. The team consists of professional journalists with years of experience in mainstream media as well as linguists, theology graduates and seasoned community activists.

The Centre for Media Monitoring has secured nearly 300 high profile corrections to inaccurate coverage, delivering hundreds of media training and awareness workshops for Muslim-led organisations and Muslim professionals across the country. The Centre for Media Monitoring is leading the charge in holding the media to account and promoting accurate reporting on Muslims and Islam.

I have been following them on Twitter and I am more than grateful for the work they do challenging the lies and false stories and the inappropriate images that are put out there about Islam

You can find out more about their work and donate here.
