UK Islamic summer camp ‘risks radicalising children’

Shia summer camp – the very definition of outdoors fun!

A summer camp sponsored by an Islamic charity accused of backing Iran could expose children to extremist views, it has been claimed.

The camp, run by the Ahlulbayt Islamic Mission (AIM) charity, is aimed at children aged nine to 14, with activities including climbing and ­abseiling along with “lectures and discussions”.

AIM describes Camp Wilayah, which is set to take place in Kings Langley, Hertfordshire, next month, as an “amazing place to enjoy the outdoors, make new friends, learn and build on Islamic values”.
