About muslim girl fence
'Muslim Girls Fence' is a project collaboration between Maslaha and British Fencing which aims to facilitate spaces at a grassroots level for Muslim girls and women to challenge assumptions and narratives relating to their gender, racial, religious and other identities through both physical and creative methods.
School projects
Every school that works with the initiative receives ten weeks of weekly fencing sessions alongside immersive and creative Maslaha workshops, exploring identity, self-expression and challenging stereotypes.

community projects
Our community projects will be running throughout 2018 across cities including London, Doncaster and Birmingham. They offer Muslim women the chance to participate in physical activity through fencing and swordplay sessions. |
Public Speaking and Consultancy
Maslaha has considerable experience in redesigning public services so they are better tailored to Muslim and marginalised communities. Together with British Fencing, the Muslim Girls Fence team has developed a unique approach to project delivery. Our expertise and approach has been recognised by various organisations over the years and has led to speaking engagements at several conferences, events, and panels such as Sport England’s Sport For All? conference, and the Sports Sites conference at City Hall.
We are always keen to engage with other organisations, whether that is through public speaking engagements, consultancy or collaborations. If you would like to have a chat with us, just drop us a line. |
