Q-News, Issue 361
March 2005


Saturday, 5th March sees the launch of The Oxbridge Muslim Alumni with an inaugural networking event to connect the Muslim alumni of Oxford and Cambridge Universities. Old and new Oxbridge students, fellows and lecturers are expected to attend the occasion, the largest ever gathering of Oxbridge Muslims. HSBC Amanah Finance and Al Buraq Islamic Finance are the main sponsors of the event, featuring Cambridge University’s Tim Winter and the Muslim Parliament’s Ghayasuddin Siddiqui. The Oxbridge Muslim Alumni strives to narrow gaps amongst some of the most successful Muslims in the UK and subsequently unite different communities under the umbrella of two common denominators, Islam and Oxbridge.
