NEW REPORT SEEKS TO CREATE "MORE POSITIVE PERCEPTION OF MUSLIMS IN BRITAIN",GIVES SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO BETTER INCLUDE MUSLIMS INTO BRITISH LIFE & CALLS FOR MORE PUBLIC MONEY BE GIVEN TO WOMEN'S GROUPS

A new report from the Runnymede Trust entitled The New Muslims says it "seeks to challenge dominant representations of Muslims in Britain by gathering the views and insights of researchers who have been seeking to understand the contemporary identities of those racialised as Muslim in the UK and the politics which surrounds their presence."

The report says that dominant perceptions of Muslims are damaging as they do not take into account the vast complexities and differences in British Muslim identities. It calls for more public money to be put into Muslim women's groups because without it they have to work "within restrictive frameworks that may not be best suited to the communities they serve."
