Locating a Sunni mosque in Worcestershire
I am hosting a group of Saudi Arabians in Worcestershire, UK. I am trying to locate a suitable mosque (Sunni based) that they can attend but I am struggling to find an appropriate one using the internet. Can anyone provide guidance on how to locate a suitable mosque that will satisfy their needs?
