Corby's Muslim community also want to find a permanent home in the town - a community centre for praying, meeting and holding classes for children. Eighteen months ago they failed to win planning permission to convert three houses on Westminister walk in the Kingswood area into a Muslim Centre.

New plans for a permanent Muslim Centre are now in place and the community want Corby Borough Council to help them locate something suitable.
