The Ancient History to Present

Mandaeans Association is an organisation set up on the basis of a religious sect of great antiquity that still exists in limited followers in the borders and territories of Iraq and Iran. It contains a variety of ancient elements that attest antiquity and adherents to the faith can be found in the cities, villages and in the lands of the lower Euphrates, the lower Tigris, and the rivers that surround the shatt-al-arab. The association consists of 400 families living in London. It was founded since 1992 and became a charitable organisation in 2003.

 

Mandaeans Association undertakes activities such as social, educational support after school hours practice its religion and have a general meeting once in a month which involves traditional food, organise special events like EID Mubarak. It invites elder people to talk to young generations and share information of reality and heritage histories.

 

Mandaeans Association participated in different activities since joined the forum such as refugee week, the black history month, did a presentation on the community council meetings, attended various trainings on stress management, funding communications and also attended on the forums meetings.

 

Becoming a forum member the organisation benefited from the training courses, workshop sessions and celebration of the black history month. To highlight the benefits are networking with other RCO’s and statutory sectors, gaining recognitions from others and receive support on funding, resources, advice and access to information on relevant matters.
