Imam Abdul Rashid Abu Bakr

Passionate and committed. A Chaplain with over 19 years of expertise providing compassionate direction and assistance to those facing various circumstances. Pledging pastoral care for convicts and staff, muslim needs, friday prayers, Ramadan, Eid, and teaching the Qur'an and Islamic studies whilst caring for them with kindness and assisting them in living law-abiding and productive lives while in jail and after release. I have also collaborated with JEXU (Joint Extremis Unit), TACT, and DDP to develop carefully structured initiatives to assist in steering people away from radicalisation. My presence encourages them to take personal responsibility for the development of their social and spiritual needs to address their offending behaviour.
