Alton, Hampshire - A temporary village full of marquees, dining halls and bazaars has been setup for a week at a 210-acre site named Hadeeqatul Mahdi in East Worldham village area.
The location commonly known to the local residents as Oakland Farm will host 30,000 expected visitors to this year’s Ahmadiyya Muslim convention, said a media advisory issued by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association (AMA) in UK.
According to Dr Basharat Nazir, press secretary for the AMA, about 60% of the attendance is expected to be made up of women and children.
One of the focuses of this year's convention would be on programmes for nurturing the new generation of enlightened Muslims, says the media advisory.
According the information received from the AMA, the site will be open to press & media prior and during the convention for interviewing, filming and photography.
The Ahmadiyya Muslim branch offices located in all major towns and cities of Britain, from where the majority of convention delegates would arrive, are available for direct media contacts.
The organizers advise that in view of the high security and limitation of car access, visitors are encouraged to arrange their attendance in advance with the organizers for hassle free arrival, parking and departure.
Location: 210-acre site known as Oakland Farm, or Hadeeqatul Mahdi at Green Street, East Worldham, Alton, Hampshire, GU34 3AU
