About us - Our Ummah Trust

Our Ummah Trust is a UK relief and development charity established in May 2015 in the heart of Birmingham, United Kingdom.

It was founded by the local community of Small Heath, Birmingham, inspired by compassion, generosity and concern about the poverty and suffering of poor people including orphans and widows in war-torn countries.

Our Ummah Trust is set up by three trustees and its aims and objectives as a trust are:

The prevention and relief of poverty and suffering by providing orphans, underprivileged children and needy people access to education, food, clean water, medical aid and shelter.

This is achieved by supporting our local partner charity Ummah Welfare Trust (UWT) in international projects:

We are constructing tube wells and hand pumps and trucking water to needy areas.
