Masjid Umar in Leicester was built in 2000, funded almost entirely by the local Muslim community. Originally two residential properties, it was rebuilt to serve a diverse Muslim community in Evington. The masjid was shortlisted for the ACE/RIBA Award for Religious Architecture in 2005 and won the People’s Choice Project of the Year Award in 2003.
