Organisers want to get the message across that the actions of ISIS and the far right do not represent the views of peaceful communities in Britain.

Quba Trust director Dawood Masood said: “We’re inviting people from all religious and cultural backgrounds to make a stand against those who seek to spread hatred.”

The event takes place at the Al Hira Centre, Beechwood Road, from 4.45pm to 7.45pm.
