About Nigerian Muslim Community Hampshire
Connecting Nigerian Muslims across Hampshire
Nigerian Muslim Community Hampshire (NMCH) is a community organisation supporting Nigerian Muslims living in Hampshire and the surrounding areas of the United Kingdom.
We bring individuals and families together through faith, education, social activities, community support and opportunities to connect with one another.
