The Gausia Mosque And Islamic Community Centre
Charity 1040011
Overview
Summary
The Gausia Mosque And Islamic Community Centre appears to be a faith-based organisation whose stated role combines religious practice with education in Islamic principles. Its declared focus on children and young people suggests it may function not only as a place of worship, but also as an early community and learning setting. However, the available evidence is too limited to clarify the scale, regularity or practical form of its services.
Operational geography
Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Alum Rock
Confidence: medium
The charity's governing document identifies the Saltley area as its area of benefit. This supports a local operational connection, but the available evidence does not independently confirm that its listed contact address is an active service-delivery site.
- Charity Commission Register of Charities, charity 1040011: contact information
Lists the charity's address in Saltley, Birmingham. - Charity Commission Register of Charities, charity 1040011: governing document
States the area of benefit as 'SALTLEY AREA OF BIRMINGHAM AND ELSEWHERE'.
Remaining uncertainties
- The Charity Commission record says that the charity operates in Birmingham City, but it does not identify particular services, venues, neighbourhoods or beneficiary catchments elsewhere in the city.
- The available evidence does not establish whether the listed contact address is a mosque or service-delivery venue, rather than solely a contact or administrative address.
- No current evidence was found of delivery sites beyond the Saltley/Alum Rock locality, or of partnerships that materially extend the charity's geographic reach.
- The Charity Commission governance record states that the charity does not own or lease land or property, reinforcing uncertainty about the tenure and operational use of the listed contact address.
Additional evidence needed
- A current timetable, programme, annual report or official social-media/website material identifying where worship, Islamic education or youth services are delivered.
- Confirmation from the charity of whether the listed contact address is an active mosque, madrasa or community-service venue.
- Details of any current partner venues, schools, mosques or community organisations used to deliver activities elsewhere in Birmingham.
- A current annual return with more specific information on service locations and the geographic distribution of activities.

Observations
Faith education appears central to its role
The organisation appears to position religious education as integral to its purpose, rather than as a secondary activity alongside worship.
Why it matters
This suggests its local contribution may include passing on religious knowledge and identity to younger people, creating a role that extends beyond congregational religious activity.

Children and young people are the clearest stated beneficiary group
The available evidence suggests the organisation may concentrate its services on younger members of the Islamic community, potentially through teaching, support or participation in religious life.
Why it matters
A youth focus can make the organisation an important local bridge between families, faith, education and community belonging; it may also create opportunities for connection with other youth-facing organisations.

Its community-centre identity is not yet evidenced in its reported activity
Although its name suggests a broader community-centre role, the supplied evidence only substantiates religious activity and Islamic education. It is unclear whether it provides wider social, cultural or practical community support.
Why it matters
This distinction matters when identifying potential local partnerships: the organisation may have wider community capacity, but that should not be assumed from its name alone.
