“EID MUBARAK”
Wishing our Islamic friends well as Ramadan, the Islamic period of prayer, fasting, charity-giving concludes.
The festival of the breaking of the fast, Eid-al-Fitr was celebrated on Sunday 30 March 2025. It marked the start of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Islamic calendar.
We think warmly of our Muslim friends as they celebrate the close of the fasting period, having had the opportunity to gather and share in an Iftar meal during the last month. We are grateful to attend these interfaith gatherings which present the perfect opportunity to make new friends with a a delicious meal and conversation.
