IN-PERSON GATHERING

Q-Connect allows people to connect to the Qur’an from around the country online but we are aware of the value of meeting in person.

The post-programme Q-Connect gathering will take place over lunch. There will be a short presentation and opportunities to meet and connect with fellow attendees as well as to invite others that might want to participate in future programmes.

Details for the in-person gathering will be confirmed with registered attendees closer the time. Scroll down for details of previous in person gathering and pictures from our previous in-person gatherings in Manchester.

AIM

Register to join us for our annual Q-Connect gathering. The aim of this gathering is two-fold; to provide Q-Connect attendees with an opportunity to meet in person and to present CEI Qur’an programmes to a wider audience. The presentations will focus on Q-Connect and Q-Immersion as these programmes are eminently accessible.

Please do consider attending, especially if you are based outside London, and feel free to forward this invitation to any friends or family that you think might be interested in hearing more about CEI’s Qur’an programmes.
