Editorial

After weeks of contributions and debate, addressing a remarkable spectrum of issues through a vibrant range of genres, we have now come to the completion of the six themed and structured weeks of The Platform. And we would like to thank all of you who have taken part and made the discussions on the blog both energetic and passionate.

However, this is not the end! Due to popular demand, The Platform will continue with its ‘Ten Years On’ themed discussion for an additional three weeks. During these weeks, we will not only continue to see contributions from notable guest contributors to the site, but also from you, the participants. In this special extension of the blog we will be posting some of the engaging contributions we have received and hope to further the debate. We have received a wide variety of pieces, from artistic contributions to enthusiastic prose, and it is with pleasure that we are hosting these.

We will also be dedicating a week to video blogs, where we will feature exclusive interviews and discussions with some of the greatest and most creative minds of our times from the British Muslim community.

So, we said it before and we’ll say it again; watch this space!
